As said before, after 15+ years as a GGR AX and Time Trial instructor the Boxster is a very forgiving platform and very easy for a newbie to drive quite quickly...
As in all things to go really fast you need lots of seat time to learn the idiosyncrasies of the car and your tire setup.
The Boxster is great until you reach that plateau and then it goes, and it goes very quickly. The envelope is very large but once you reach it, hold on and put both feet in!
After driving many laps at several Norcal tracks in a Spec Boxster doing tire and suspension tuning, the Boxster makes a wonderful track car when set up properly and it makes a nice track car with wonderful handling in completely stock form on street tires.
If you exceed the limits of the laws of physics, it doesn't matter if you have the best tires and suspension possible, or if you have all the electronic aides and nannys engaged, you are going to go.
