S2000 CR Club Racer Edition CR stands for "club racer," conjuring up the good old days when guys drove their sports cars to the track, raced them, and then, if the racing gods were smiling, drove them home again

no moddifications needed with these wheels, camber kit is for the track. I rubbed the inner fender plastic only at Road Atlanta becaused of the extreme elevation changes coming down the back stretch into 10A and braking hard. On the majority of most tracks in the US, you won't have any issues.

no philosophy, the front of the car has a clear bra on it, I just add blue tape to the parts where it doesn't have any protection.

Not alot, but I do notice that the turn in is a bit sharper. Strut tower bars are worthless for the S2k, but I do feel the under bracing in this circumstance (X brace or any ladder brace) will help out a bit.

My CR got broken into this week -_- but on the bright side they scratched it enough for me to force the insurance to paint the whole car. I've decided to go full flat black. What do y'all think?

I think since it's no not mint condition I'm going to go the road race path. It's an 08 with only 25k miles

I would go back to oem color and track it. You can always wrap it flat black. The oem will be worth more if you ever do plan to sell it.

Sorry about the break in, stupid thieves.

I wraped it myself a few months ago but I never finished it. I got all the front end done but never got the time to finish it. I need to color match my CF hood. It's a beautiful Top Secret hood but oxidizing has gotten the best of it :/ I want to get some rims here but I'm having trouble picking sizes :/ http://neezinternational.com/

How are you liking the OZ wheels? I'm seriously considering picking up a set because they're so cheap. Are yours the black painted ones or the matte ones?
