Someone sent me your video earlier today and it made me realize that the S2000 is the track car I need, so I joined S2ki. So thanks for that I guess

Ditch the old NSX and you can have quite a nice ride in a superior track car

That did look like a ton of fun. The ring in a good and/or great car that I know well is certainly a bucket list item myself. Like everyone else my first thought of the still shot before I played the video was 'belts with stock seats?'. I wasn't thinking 'ejector seat' like CKit so much as 'broken collar bones', but anyway.

Also yes the one-handed driving is strikingly odd, though it became clear that you weren't pushing it really hard for much of it and when you did the hands instinctually went to the wheel. I'm sure with helmet, top up and the intent of a really fast lap you really could pull a nice time as you were doing quite well with what appeared to be a pretty casual approach (easy to armchair quarterback that one as I don't know if my pair would grow or shrink to the challenge of a ring run).

Thanks for an enjoyable 9 mins of entertainment.

RT, you're a blast from the past!

That was great fun to watch. The S2000 really is a good car for such antics.
