I was enjoying the beautiful morning and playing in traffic. I mixed it up with a Turbo S for a couple miles and was waiting for him when he cleared the traffic bolus behind us.
I was holding the speed steady at 63mph in 3rd gear while the Porsche came up. When he reached my back bumper he floored it as did I. I pulled him a couple car lengths by 9200 rpm when I shut down. At this point I see radar cops in the bushes 200 yards away. Busted..OOps.

The cop had a grin and had me very nervous for a few minutes. I didn't know what to think when the other cop called over and wanted to know the vechicle code section for Porsche loosing to a Honda. A little levity sure helps. I just knew it would be a big fat racing ticket and loss of car and............

It turned out they had us on their new fangled multi target radar the whole stretch from their vantage point. He picked me up at 63 and watched me go to 95. The Porsche gave up at 87 after I shutdown at 95 according to the cop. Damn, they got me dead to rights.

The porsche guy got cited for 85 and reckless driving.
I was let go with a warning and a no front plate ticket. I guess it beats going to traffic school. Win:Win:Win

 

I dunno what you've done to your's but my initial thoughts are that the porsche was far from WOT.

 

Haha. Quad turbos wouldn't be enough for the porsche to keep up with sideways. ~500 whp 10k redline and so forth. One of the fastest s2000s on the planet. If not THE fastest.

 

My guess is that you have lots of boost, or the porsche owner wasnt aware of the race.

 

Nice! Sideways = the god of s/c'd s2000's.

So what "favor" did you do to the cop to get away so light?

 

My mistake. Excellent kill

Next up: Carrera GT

[edit] btw, yellow... i know it's starting to be a bit cliche but I can't get enough of that sig. Everytime I get to your post I have to start the thread over to remember what the topic was.

 

He has beaten one already.

 

As much as I'd like to believe that, you'll never convince me that a s/c 4cyl. will ever beat a TTV10. You can find bad drivers everywhere but machine vs. machine I just cannot grasp a carrera gt losing to much of anything.

 

I've been on this site for about a year now and I have read alot of posts by SIDEWAYS and i believe his S2k is very fast.how many whp are you putting down if i may ask,sideways?
