Yeah, Perry Bennett takes awesome autocross photos. I'm waiting for him to post the images from Nationals.
I wouldn't call it hard work but a much different race experience. Compared to modern Porsches with all the electronic "nannies", this is just driver, steering wheel, peddles and shifter. The feedback for the car is much more intense. And no windshield makes it feel like you're going 100 mph. What is more difficult is getting the car ready in paddock and keeping it protected from rain. My enclosed trailer is very tight and I wench the car in and out. We've still got our '99 Boxster so if I get tired of this one, I can jump in that for an event or two. It's nice having options
