I've been to several of the LuckDogs and they are a blast with LOADS of track time. I'm also in Portland but still trailer down for 6-8 weekends a year including Aug 28th weekend at Sonoma.

Lucky dog looks great, would the spb slot into a class?

I had a fun race in Portland at the ICSCC Dash for Kids this weekend. We had a respectable 8 cars in the ST class and the race had a crazy finish where we went 3 wide at the finish line. I managed to go from first to third, but oh well it was a blast.

Schwank you need to get that boxster finished!

Looks like a fun track. Great racing! What are you driving?

It is a 968 with an LS1 V-8, running an air restrictor to get 305 rwhp for this class.

Great sound!!

Yes I do Eric! Motor is getting finished up, and the car is on the ground as a roller, so we're getting close. ECU is going to be the biggest issue remaining, but I should be up and running for 2017.

schwank

Yep. Even an ST car will work at the top end. Bring your car out!

I had a bunch of fun races this year with ICSCC, here are some highlights:

Great racing
What category/ where would the spec Boxster (200hp 2725lbs w driver) race in icscc?

JGB

You can get rules online at icscc.ctom. By my reading the spec boxster would be SPM (super production 2-4 L) or ST (Weight >=HP * (10 +/- adjustments))

What times did you run at ORP? Eric's 968 is classed in both SPM and ST (different run groups) and it looks like he was running mid 1:50's at the Sept race there.

I didn't break 2:00 however this was my first time at ORP. I was on old rubber and it had rained, so no rubber laid on track. 4-5 laps into weekend my engine let go.
Link to video posted on previous page.
With some laps under my belt and new rubber that time sounds right.

I think we touched on that earlier in this thread and Jim covered it. A spec boxster will not be great fit in the existing classes. You could race it anyways knowing it wont be the car to beat, and possibly try to raise interest in the class. ICSCC will add a class if a group of racers are committed to making it happen. Or you could drop the spec part and modify the car.

It was my first time making it down to ORP this year too. It is definitely a track that takes some time to get comfortable with. By the time I left on Sunday I was just starting to feel like I knew what I was doing there. I could see how a spec boxster would be fun there.
