Cool momofoolio's Street Tire Buttonwillow 1:59.6 Lap

It has been 3 years since I picked up an S2000 and started tracking.
From my record, my first ever Buttonwillow 13CW track day was on 11.4.2007 and my best time was a 2:17 lol

Track: Buttonwillow 13CW Open Test
Ambient Temp: 85F

congrats Alex!! You're the 4th person, I know of, to break the 2 minute mark using street tires on a street setup S2000. Maxrev, stinkytofu, darylcha, and momofoolio! I hope I can be next...in a few years >__<
