Mike, u should be embarrassed to even ask man.
I kicked your ass up and down that street so bad........
You sure you installed that vortech supercharger in there right?
hehe...
Actually we ran Mike's SC s2k a couple of times with mixed results..
We launched together what, 3 times? and did one roll from a start. Distance we ran was somewhere between 1/8 to 1/4 mile.
This was against my 315hp stock M coupe. On a 100 degree day at MIR 2 weekends back, my M coupe ran a 13.6 at the 1/4 track. Magazines have the M coupe running anywhere between high 12's to low 13's in a 1/4 mile. I just suck at launching my car ( tires spin all through 1st and a bit of 2nd gear).
One thing for sure, I can tell that the Vortech SC S2k is faster and will pull on me once its in Vtech range...
We need to take the cars to a track and also do some in gear HWY runs soon!
Jenner has our runs on camera. Maybe he can post it soon?

Sit tight guys, the races I recorded are on their way to Mike. He will post the links to them as soon as he has them. They are about 1 to 1.5 megs each and .wmv files. Trust me they are worth the download time.
I don't want to give anything away, but I have to say that it shows what the real deal is. (Edited: looks like he gave it all away in the post above mine! The Vortech kit is FRIGGIN FAST!!!!!)
Just a quick run down of the cars:
Mikes Vortech Supercharged S2000 with the top down
vs
Stock 315hp 2001 BMW M Coupe owned/driven by a fellow S2000 owner.
Both cars are on street tires, Mike is on 18"s.

It looks like the S2000 is a little quicker from both a rolling start and stopped start. It's tough to tell since you can't really tell how got how big of a jump and race 1 and 2.
Regardless, that's a very fast S2000.
