Default Suspension Travel

I just want to ask how much suspension travel do you have on your S2000? Specifically from the bottom of the bump stop to the top of the strut with tires and wheels on the car and the car on the ground.

I am currently running 1.25 inch all around. I have a Koni/GC set-up with 440 front and 380 rear spring rate. I have 245/40/17 tires on 17x8.5 +58 wheels all around.

Is 1.25 inch of travel enough? Would the car buttom out under hard cornering on the track?

Just to clarify, I am not asking about full droop or from the center of the center cap to the fender lip. I am asking about travel under load with the car on the ground.

Thanks

Stock sway bars?
Full interior?
Cage?
Street tires?
Any Track in particular?

I'm sure I may have missed a few but this info is needed for someone to be able to answer your question.
