Default Spec Boxster's Battling At Laguna.....

Some great battles from POC's race last Sunday at Laguna. Nathan Johnson in the camera car battling Mark Foley in the #299 lime green Boxster and Alex Bermudez in the black #909 Boxster. Enjoy....

Just watched 7 mins of it. Will watch remaining later but the black car initially when he was practically early apexing and finally white car passed him but kinda notice on the straight white car couldn't pull on him even though he late apex and accelerated early. Seems to me the black car had more power also was black car came back behind him or was that another black bsr? But what a riot with 12 bsr's. Mike

Yea he's pretty unbeatable and you can see there are faster SB's out there. I was particularly aware of how much more speed he was carrying into the corners (especially T6) than his competition.....

Very nicely done. The driving....car setup....camera placement....editing.....video quality. All top shelf.

I liked the "match book close" shot!

Great pick in T11 at 9:35! Too bad it didn't stick!

Nice driving... But they should have black flagged his A@& for gapping the start like that. He must have been 10 car-lengths out of position when the flag dropped.

Depends. We are allowed to. I do personally myself. Some don't.
