We’ve all heard of the Tail of the Dragon and have probably heard  tales from people that have visited or seen videos of the notorious Dragon events. We have an entire forum dedicated to the fun events that take place on this twisty stretch of tarmac. The 10th DragonBall Run (a.k.a. DBRX) was held this [...]

We’ve heard the stories from several automotive sites and the press releases from Honda about the new Honda CR-Z sports hybrid. Per Honda, this is a very promising vehicle that is supposed to be the beginning of a new era and the direction that their future products will take. The response for the CR-Z as [...]

Ever since Honda announced that production for the S2000 will end, there have been rumors about another coming. Some called it an AP3, yet others were looking forward eagerly to the arrival of the NSX. Rendered images flooded the internet and Honda too fueled the speculation with the OSM concept, and by starting to test [...]

Throughout the history of auto racing there are many courses that have marked their place in history as something special. Some of those courses are the Monaco Grand Prix which runs through the glamorous city of Monaco and also the Melbourne F1 Grand Prix which courses through Albert Park in Melbourne. On par with such [...]

Have you ever wondered to what extent the S2000 is hand built? Rumors have floated around that the interior was stitched together by experienced female Honda technicians, because they could do a better job than the men. All those rumors may now be put to rest. Understandably Honda (like any other manufacturer) has kept their [...]

What began as an innocent suggestion from S2K Nut some time in 2009 became another Megameet! This was to be the second S2KUK meet to be organised and held in the Isle of Man. The previous one was in 2007 and attracted over 30 cars. The great attraction of the Isle of Man for a [...]

There is a certain magic to a cross country trip. All the more fun when experienced in a roadster. With time on your hands, the sky above, black asphalt below and at the controls of a car begging to prolong the drive. The scenery unfolding and changing before ones eye and the hum of the [...]

     I’d like to draw your attention to our member twoohoos, that has posted the following tribute to his car that turned 11 years old.   “Last year I missed posting on my 10th anniversary of buying my car. It only seems appropriate that I do a little online celebrating on its 11th anniversary.

Picture Thread here. While the home page may have been quiet of late, the past few days have been a blur for us. Energetic was holidaying on an exotic Greek Island and I made my annual trek to the Watkins Glen Grand Prix Festival at Watkins Glen, NY to participate in the Knapp Vineyards Sporting [...]

Many track enthusiasts are constantly trying to beat the clock in pursuit of the fastest lap. Yet, there are those that live life a quarter mile at a time. Makes one wonder how fast an S2000 can complete the quarter mile. Look no further. Count the seconds in the first video below that introduces us [...]

When asked to describe the exhaust note on the S2000, some if not most of us would display a perplexed look or sarcastically say, “what exhaust note?”. Many of our members feel that the S2000 sounds better and truer to its nature if equipped with an after-market exhaust system from say ASM or Invidia or [...]

Visiting Japan is a pilgrimage of sorts for several of us. It is the home of Honda and where our cars were built. Check out the recent trip that MAD828, our member from down under (as in Sydney, Australia) took to Japan and all the fun he had there. Caution: Pictures in the thread may [...]

S2000 Talk has a thread calling for picture submissions for the 2011 calendar. S2KI has had calendars for the last two years and 2011 will be the third year in succession. Saki GT, one of our forum moderators is heading up this project and the calendars are expected to be on sale sometime during November [...]

A discussion with that title has been going on now for a few days in the Vintage S2000 Owners group. This thread was inspired by an article on something called the slow-car movement. For your benefit let me attempt to define what a slow car is – A car that has abysmal horsepower by current [...]

This seems to be the question, and a good one at that being asked by our member King. He has started a poll on the S2000 talk forum designed to track age demographic data  for all people that currently own and drive an S2000. In his own words it is “Just a poll to see [...]
