Fastest car Ruf CTR 2 modified to like 700HP!
Biggest Surprise 944 turbo finished 4th!! with only like a $17k car or some crap like that!
S2k finished 27 out 70 with only the 50th highest straight away speed. I guess there is this long straight stretch...and the S2k only got the 50 highest speed, on it, but turned in the 27th best time with a guy driving who has never driven this hill before...pretty good I would say!
caterham finished 5th with 24th slowest straight line speed. But, that is hardly a road car!!

Overall, it shows the ability of the chassis of the S2k and the fact it needs more engine!! At least that is what I take out of it. Finishing in the top 3rd with a botton 1/4 straight line speed seems pretty damn amazing.

 

There are several other chapters in the "Pulp Stories" section of his website that refer to his purchase and impressions of the S2000. This is coming from a guy that has a 390 hp NSX and a Ferrari 355. I've enjoyed his writing style and the stories are pretty funny. It's worth a look. http://www.nsxfiles.com/stories.htm
