Happy to say I just got back from a race against 2 s2000's. They were together on the 105east freeway. Lucky me just driving at 70mph and one revvs next to me and wants to go. I say hey what the heck.:thumbsup: I honk 3 times and we I take off in third at 60mph and god his exhaust was loud :eek:. End of third and forth I was 3 to 4 car lengths ahead. The other guy in the white s2000 didnt want to go for some strange reason. The guys wanted to chat so we stopped at a mobil station and the one with the white s2000 didnt like me very much for some weird strange reason and said I have nos but I showed them my engine and said basically I have most bolt on mods and just get back in his car with his girl. The guy I ran with though was really cool and said he has bolt on and tune and supposedly he runs low 13's. :poke:. I just said by and just laughed back home. no way a s2000 like his is built ran low 13's. But good times.:banana::rockon::-D

what bolt ons do you have? I'm just curious since a stock S2000 and a stock 96-98 Cobra are a very good race.. (both high 13 sec/low 14 sec cars from 99 to 101 mph)

and good kills..

I dont get it either. I met up with the other guy and he is really cool. He kept asking about the cobra and wanted to buy one but got an s2000. He really likes asian chicks. that was his reason. lol

My friend paired off against an 07 S2000 in his lightly modded 04GTO. The S2000 got him off out of the hole good and he couldn't catch up before running out of room. Then they went from a 60 roll and he walked the S2K.

When my LS1 GTO A4 was stock I raced my co-workers stock S2000 and it was pretty even until the auto shifted into that vaunted LS1 "3RD" gear around 80 then I started to pull away. I got respect for them because they're not even built for running in a straight line. Take that baby to a road course and you'll see the real fun.

I raced a newer one a few weeks back... It had at least exhaust, and I got him by a good 3-4 cars up to 110. Good kill :beer:

The older ones are mid to high 14 second cars, and aren't comparable to a SN95 cobra. However, the 2005 S2000's do the 1/4 in 14.2 sec @ 98.0 mph with a 0-60 in 5.5. The new ones stock S200 vs stock SN95 Cobra is a driver's race.

well.. having talked with numerous people that have achieved high 13's (13.7-13.9 from 99-101 mph) from a 2.0 S2000... saying they are only good for mid to high 14's is kinda wrong.. and any S2000 vs a SN95 Cobra (4.6) is a good race..
