Default WTB: Spec Boxster

Nevermind, found one.

---------------------------------

I've decided I'd like to start PCA Club Racing. It looks like Spec Boxster has very competitive racing and the (generally) lowest cost per weekend, so that's where I'm starting the search.

Anyone know of a decent Spec Boxster for sale at a reasonable price? I'm looking at a few cars in NJ and one in FL, but would really like to find a local one if possible.

Thanks!

Quick tip I learned this weekend - Make sure you buy one with the snorkel in-tacked.

Do the rules require a snorkel?

I have a 986 one somewhere if anyone needs/wants it.

I believe the tech guys were inspecting for them as removing them counts as a modification. Not an expert but thats what I heard.

Just sayin what?

Unless you're going to give me a race car, I can only get and race what I can afford. At this point in time, that's SPB (or Spec Miata, but they don't let Miatas into PCA).

Bill,
You're welcome to take a couple of laps in my SSM (Spec Miata is faster but considerably more expensive to race, and SSM competition is better). I even have a passenger seat I can install for the weekend.

It drives just like the Durango...

Bump. Still looking.

I've been emailing about 2 in NY, 2 in FL, two in NC and one in TX. But, nothing any closer to home. And, three of those cars are in the "not really sure if I want to sell" category.

I will also consider other race cars, on the conditions that they must be eligible for PCA Club Racing, must be in competitive classes and need to have fairly low operating costs (so, no cup cars for me )

Did you contact Provost motorsports in NJ? I know he was selling his personal car.
