Thats something more suited for a slightly modded v6 camaro/firebird to race not an ls1. I couldnt find quarter mile times but if I were to guess its probably mid high 14's.

unless you go through some curves, he wont be a problem at all. That flat six in them does pretty well for what it is. I beat up on one pretty bad with my bolt on lt1, my buddy was with me and we couldn't stop laughing at the fact that the kinda hot blonde was pissed and was flipping us off as we passed her. Your uncle doesn't stand a chance.

You're talking about a low-mid 14s car here... you should have no problem at all.

Boxters race at the road races and not the drag strip for a reason.... at the strip you would kill him, at the autocross he would make you look worse then how you will make him look at the strip....

And I disagree with the assessment that the Boxster isn't a true Porsche, btw.

It very much is along the same lines as the 550 Spyder... nothing wrong with that.

Boxster S 1/4 mile- about 14 flat
Boxster 1/4 mile- mid 14's
you have nothing to worry about. You will crush him easily

Better hope he's not lying to you about the year. If its the 09 with PDK and S they run 12.60's all day at 110. If it happens to have and I highly doubt, the 3.6 l, with X51 on the 06 then good luck.
