Default I got beat...:( read on fellaz

Driving nice and slow down the road and a newer body style trans am pulls up next to me.. i notice the huge nostral looking hood and proceed to show off.. rev matching all my beautiful Apex N1 down shifts... so we come to a light... im thinking,... hahahah a Trans Am wants a piece.. please.... we take off.. hes about half a car ahead of me and i dont think hes gonna punch it.. at this point im at 6.5 rpm in first.. ready to jump.. all of a sudden i hear his car GO.. i mean GO.. i punch it and were side by side.. then he pulls half of a car... every time hed shift i pull to his nose.. but through his gears hed pull back t half a car ahead.. he did shift really slow.. i almost shifted as fast as my body could go without coming off the gas.. 70% throttle shifts.. i gave my car all it had but this Trans am beat me by half a car.. (My nose was at his door)......i was amazed. it was too gangster lookin mexican guys in the front seats.. i said.. "god damn that things fu**in quick!"... we raced from about 25-110.. i was amaazed... i ask him what he has and he says its a stock WS6... i was like alright WTF is that... so i go home.. go on car-stats.com... and to my suprise the car runs 0-60 in 5.0 and 1/4 in 13.50... i was proud of myself.. the little honda that could proved itself once again.. thanks for listing to my rant/rave... peace

Always jump first! Then you'll never lose a street race Way to represent the 4 bangers. A well driven WS6 can run 13.0Xs all day long.

Why was this a surprise?

-Steve (who wonders if other S2000 owners really think they can beat LS1 F-bodies).

Trans Ams are simply faster than S2000s. Just a known fact. No shame in losing to them.

Wow, you lost to KITT, ok fine I'm talking about the wrong Trans Am. But whenever I hear Trans Am I think of KITT from Knight Rider. Watch out for that turbo boost!
