Uh, the S2000 isn't a mid 14 second car unless you suck ass at driving. It's more like he beat a low 13 second car with a mid-high 13 second car.

Edit: Actually, that's if it was stock. With the mods that guy had, if he was at 380 WHP (not uncommon for chipped 335'is) that's 100 whp more than stock (335i dynos stock at 280 whp/280 wtq.) So it'd go from being a low 13 second car to a mid-high 12 second car.

So yeah, either the guy was clutching and hitting the gas with only one foot or you're BS'ing.
ETs don't mean squat on a roll race. There is a huge horsepower and TRAP SPEED disparity between a chipped 335 and a NA S2k.

Yeah guess anything can happen on the street but he definitely had the much faster car. Even stock he should have crushed you.

Nice runs...I'm betting the 335 driver was lying about mods, he should have had zero problem pulling you at any speed. I didn't lose to near stock S2000's when my 335 was stock...after mods it's not even fun racing them.

He was sort of vague in description of the mods so he probably was lying.

JHooby, I am assuming that the video was you vs. a 335. What are the mods on each of the cars?

I don't know about him being modded, but after watching some of the other videos of S2ks vs. stock 335s it seems like a drivers race. Even the videos that had S2ks loseing it was pretty close.
