And I won! It was from a roll, not sure how fast we were going, but I was in 2nd gear at beginning. I was ahead the entire time, and began to pull hard as soon as I got to the top of 2nd. No idea if it was automatic or not, but it felt good just the same. I actually stopped and talked to him afterwards, needless to say he was suprised. I don't know if he just wasn't a car guy, or was trying to insult my car, but he just asked, "That thing isn't anywhere near stock, right?" Now, I just need to find a Viper to play with.

zo6 doesn't come automatic.......unless you put the lingenfelter 427TT package in with an automatic transmition and then I don't think you would have won

I believe it was 340 rwhp and low low 200's ft/lbs. I really don't like the tune though. I'm running really rich, the tuner said it was for safety, but I think idling at 11:1 is ridiculous. Not to mention I have a hell of a time washing all that black shit of the back of my car every week.

340rwhp and shortazz 4.77s would do it, I'd imagine.

i don't think he was trying to insult you, it probably freaked him to see an S2000 pulling him. S2000s don't exactly strike fear into hearts of LSx owners.
