ya i thought they ran like low to mid 14s..anyways it was still fun

 

Yep its great when you can beat a tiny sports car!

 

as i was passing he looked over at me and my GF like WTF how is he passing me..haha..he looked like a little rich kid too.

 

Haha very nice kill man. This reminds me of the time i raced my friends 08 civic si with intake header and exhaust. The tiny light weight car was only able to beat me by a nose and he wasnt happy about it either lol.
Keep up the good workk!

 

I saw one run slower then a V6 mustang....fast is not a word i use to describe them.

I prefer: overpriced.

 

Technically(and every single S2gay owner will quote) they run 13.9 as car and driver tested. However they dumped the clutch at like 8k to get it move like that. A technique that just sounds stupid when its a 30-35k car.

 

ya i seen over at dragtimes.com people were claimin 14.1-13.8 stock.

 

no way on the 13.8-14.1 !! i ran one on the interstate back in my 16.1 days and started realin him in a smidge until he hit the bottle!! lol it was rediculously slower than i thought

 

That's the thing with those so called "exotic" performance cars. Nobody really knows how fast they are. When a kid mentions an S2000, it's in a sense like, "Whoa, that's a FAST CAR!" When a rich yuppie tells you about his F430, he tells you it's fast as hell. When an English bloke tells you about his Jag You Ah XK8, he'll tell you the performance is mahvelous. And it pains me to say it, but old guys will tell you nothing would ever touch their Boss 302. When you got on the throttle, you couldn't even reach ahead it was pulling so fast. Nobody bothers to put any actual numbers on it! They assume it's a fast car and anything else is second tier. That's the difference between a gearhead and a car enthusiast. The car enthusiast will see the S2000 at the cruise night and assume it's a fast car. The gearhead will see the S2000 and respect it cause it will probably get out of it's own way, but knows that the sleepy looking GMC truck parked next to it has potential to be a power house. Good kill though, put that rich kid in his place.

 

Very well said.. thanks for the compliment.
