my old cossie would eat my RX7 on the straight but as soon as you come to a bend a 2wd cosworth is pants. Tyres are too thin design is older than the rx7 and its probably full of rust unless its a well looked after 3door or RS500.

i actually liked driving a boxter felt very stable but i like the right foot steering with the arse end in the rex :D

Arn\'t the Boxster S 300 gee-gees or there abouts? There\'s millions of them around here these days. Not really competition but worth it for a laugh as they are cheaper so the owners might be up for a laugh. I love Porsche (or any other expensive new car) baiting but I\'m often aware that Mike Money in his £100k supercar isn\'t going to bother racing another jap upstart :-) Its great when they will though.

We\'ve got 2 of them in our club pushing over 300bhp. One just went over 400bhp but couldn\'t keep traction on the dyno.

I was behind a ford probe around ty croes and to be honest its the worst handling car I have ever seen!! he was coasting around corners with the rear wheel lifting 3 " of the ground at very very slow speeds around every corner holding everything up. even the little 950cc minis where embarasing him!!
they are pants and hold everyone up on track days!! they should all be banned from all tracks!!!

Lol I know, They were designed with the American market in mind. Great for a long drive tho (well the MX6 is not so sure about the probe as the seats are different)

If mine fails the MOT the engine going in the Mrs MX3 lol :Hammer

Well, we just laugh about them, my mate has a MkII MR2 and we keep calling each others cars a Ford Probe ;)

But a MR2 from the front does look so similar!

But I digress, back to the a$$ whooping stories! I did have a play with a SL55 AMG on the way back from Silverstone the other week, but we both kept it kinda sensible so was quite cool really.

...and how good was the driver? Maybe first time on the track? Don\'t judge an entire range of cars from one experience with it, rx7club.com is full of people like that.
