Choices...Choices

I'm pretty sure I'm going to sell my 951 next spring. Am I giving up on Porsches? Hell no. I have two ideas:

1) Buy a 944 NA Race car.

A road course is going up a mere 20 miles from me. I figure for what I can sell my 951 for, I can put together a full race setup, including a trailer, spares, some additional tools, tires, etc...

2) Buy a Boxster.

I'm thinking 2.7 or 3.2. I think it would be cheaper to tool around in a 2000+ Boxster than race a 20-year old 944. I think my 951 would buy me half (or less) of the Boxster I want.

My wife wants me to get a Boxster, mostly because she wants me to teach her to drive stick and she has no interest in racing. Realistically, I'm not sure that I have the time/resources to seriously race.

Thoughts?
