There's just no incentive to put the new one in knowing that I can't drive it for 2 more months.

Two months is long enough to fabricate an LS engine swap!

Hey SlowTeg, sorry for the confusion, someone in the thread asked me if Rosso Bambino was the "new" S2000 and I was saying that I'd already called my VR "Rosso" so since I ended up with another red car I was thinking about going with Red Head Baby which would be Testa Rosso Bambino but then people might think I'm talking about either the first or second ugliest Ferrari everywhere. Anyway, there is a Passion Red V70R that I took to the big track at Summit Point and surprised virtually all other cars in my newbie class. In doing so I TOTALLY destroyed my OEM 25,000 mile old brake set of rotors/pads but it was great fun.

The new toy is the Bambino S2000. Working on a new job right now that would have a company car, so the VR could be going up for sale.
Didn't mean to confuse.

818? My buddy built the AEM 818 (https://fbcdn-sphotos-f-a.akamaihd.n...6dfc5149b3b682).

Definitely going to get it tuned. If I've spent this much on everything then it only makes sense to get it tuned for more power/reliability/longevity.

Plus Mach V is good to me.

Ok I'm definitely a little confused but all good..

Good to see another s2k at the event. Your s2k has a FR turbo kit? It'll be interesting to see how it holds up over the course of a session. Nice ride.

Kinda been neglecting this thread since i was suppose to be out this season to buy a house. Long story short i broke up with the girlfriend, got my priorities strait again, not getting a house and instead bought an engine for my car. Should be at my door in a month, then its just install. Boomsuase im back! Think my first event will be the may shenandoah, hope to see you all there!
