tunerguy: good kill. it seems that some s2000 owners have issues w/ admitting there are faster cars out there. when i get beat i always give whoever it is a thumbs up and their usually shocked at how well this lil' 4banger can hang.

I cried a little But I'm all better now

In all sincerity is nice to see that there are other people out there who own different cars but still admire ours. I suppose we shouldn't knock anyone for that.

tunerguy:
Nice kill, must be really sweet for you? I would if i smoked the S in a altima or sentra. NICE Altima you got there.

Guys, take it easy on the guy. At least he's not a jerk by saying the S is slow/sucks or any others nasty comments. Give him some credits.

I really like the S2000 and its capabilities. My car runs 13.5 at 105, its top heavy, big turbo.

U gotta understand though, little Civics, Accords, Integras are all nothing too me. I look for lower end sports cars. Even the mighty Z and Supra will fall prey if they are stock, and auto. My car is auto as well, so I could have walked all over that S2000 that night instead of crawl from him. Funny, 2 Accords, both white were tempted to play. Both right after the other!! Then the S2000 came along and didn't want nothing to do with it at first.

It was the best race experience that I have had to date. Glad it was with a S2000. The sound of the motor screaming was worth the try.

Also, it has taken a long time to put the car together and it makes it all worth it when an unsuspecting guy thinks he can show someone up and the underdog wins. Don't you guys run into that all the time? Just wanted my time underneath the spotlight.

tunerguy- Kudos to you and your Altima. I did see your link and you've obviously done a lot of work to it. I can see now that it's no ordinary Altima. With your time of 13.5 that sure is one quick car! I'll make sure that if I see you and it's a straight away to be careful Though, I worn you if you're on the backroads I'll have to leave you Good going tunerguy and thanks for posting here. It's nice to see outsiders views on things!

Just a quick plug:

My fabricator had plans for a turbo kit for the S2000. Anyone interested, or wants to give some input on the development, let them know:

Let them know that you ran into Alan with the Altima!!

Top notch quality and wokmanship. Just look at my pics . . .

Let me reiterate something here, geeesh... A modified Altima to a stock S2K probably driven poorly. Now let's see, Mod the S2k, no turbo, add the Comptech SC'er and we have mod vs. mod. 13's won't be enough to save you from a modified S2k, Nice kill though, for what it's worth.
