I think we've all been a bit spoiled by the latest technology. 333hp is nothing to scoff at. However, I schooled the crap out of an E46 a couple months ago and I was making 300whp at the time. With 400whp you should have downshifted to third to bring tears to his eyes.

I might actually be coming down on Thursday - Sunday! I'll be going to the Boca Raton area - dunno if Gainesville is on the way...

Is that drug/alcohol test you have to take to get a FL. liscense that hard?

Nice kill.

It's good to put cocky German car owners in their place. A lot of them think, it's German, it's the greatest.

He probably didn't tell anyone about his loss to your S2000. haha.

Turbo S2000 are no joke. I am planning to get mine in the future.

later

Once turbo, you move up in the food chain (sometimes by a big jump depending on power levels).

Racing an M3 is like racing a civic with a stock s2k, its more wasting gas then anything

I hate to be the grinch here, but as a previous s2k owner turned 02 M3 owner I have to say that the S would not match me in higher gears. I can understand if you thought you were "racing", but I honestly do not think the other driver was in the same state of mind. As for cocky BMW owners? Nah :-D Everyone has a certain passion for their cars.
