A bunch of pics and vids of my S2000
I realize that the season is coming to an end. The freaking leaves are turning yellow and falling off. It's getting colder and it's getting darker sooner. Depressing. The S2000 will probably be put away till next year probably starting in november. So..it made me make a pic and video thread lol.
This is probably a week or 2 after I bought it. Lowered. City lights. lol looked pretty weak.


After 2nd day at autobahn CC.



all cleaned up the same day

Gingerman WMHM7



Not sure why or how this (below) picture turned out so well...

Got my KW V3s on (upgrayyyed from Skunk2 springs). Too low. The car's about .75'' - 1'' higher today.

Hah...it still had a plastic window. It's glass now.

Thanks to whomever took these. WMHM8 gingerman raceway.


These are some AWESOME tires. People at the event couldn't believe the car was on street tires. I even caught up to another S2000...except he had R comps. The amazing part is that they were also so good when the track was under 2'' of water for the whole first day. Considering how good they were in the water, I didn't think that they'd be that great in the hot and dry of the next day. Not only were they sticky...but they NEVER got greasy no matter how hard I pushed the car.
Dunlop Dirreza sport Z1 star spec. They took a beating for sure. I'll buy another set when mine wears out. I'm totally sold.


Race brakes make your wheels look char broilied. The brakes got hot enough to melt my hub centric rings...but they never faded. EBC yellow race pads
.

I think my engine bay is pretty clean.

Putting the stock brakes on and doing an oil change after the event.

Here are some videos of Gingerman. Some of the cars I pass up were on slicks in the Advanced 2 class. I originally ran in the Intermediate class, but found that Advanced 2 was the best fit for me. I think my setup this year was VERY good. I liked it a lot.
I was pretty impressed at the outside view of my entry and exit speed for corner 1 in the beginning of this video. Some of the other cars in that clip are caged out and on slicks. lol also look at the cool oversteer clips after around 3:50 sec in. There was really a shitload of water on the track.

They have cigarette butts imprinted into them from the ride home lol. They were F'ing mushy.
Good or bad comments welcome. You can't hurt my feelings any worse than those mean girls in high school did

I try to make it to several other events throughout the season, but WMHM is definately the cherry on top of every season. Unfortunately, this year, it was one of the only events I was able to attend
....but it was FREAKING AWESOME
.lol...season's not quite over, though. Maybe I'll convince my friends to go to Road America in October.
Also, thanks to everyone else for the comments!
