In '98, Michael Butler (multi-time national champ in a Miata) and I co-drove
my father's '97 Boxster in some local events and at the San Diego National
Tour, and quite frankly, kicked ass. It was a big surprise that people didn't
go out and buy one after that.
We would have happily continued to drive it that season except that I had to
return the car :-(
