Run in with an S2k

Had some fun with an S2k this weekend. Nice guy, spoke with him at a light after, he had apexi exhaust (me stock as far as engine mods). took him up a straight for about an 1/8 mile and had him easily in a S curve section of a canyon. Then at the light he finally got in the right gears and had me litterally by his nose. But going into 3rd gear i was inching on him. Good times.

Also at the red when we were done talking he almost ran the red, must have been embarrasing for him, he rolled out half way and slammed on his brakes. Good times.

Um No... its 3 Lbs.

Seriously those things are so light I might be able to bench press one!

Anyhow, im sure I [06 G35 6MT coupe] can beat an S2k if he's stock... performance wise, they definately are a great match.

being a previous owner of an s2000 i would say that it is a tiny bit quicker but a hell of a lot more fun to drive for obvious reasons "vert,9k redline,amazing clutch and tranny". I miss that tranny more and more every time i drive the G

I miss my s2k. Got totaled two weeks ago on CA99 in Sacramento. Some idiot cut me off and I slammed into the center divider, then did a 360 hitting back end and then front end. Bastard kept on going and I was stuck with the insurance paperwork [sorry for jacking the thread]. Very fun car to own and drive. I would recommend it to anyone.
