I like to race new stock Mustang GTs. They are fast but my AP2 has done well so far. I beat an auto convertable 2 stop lights back to back, that was too easy. The manuals I raced never passed me, we cut out at 100MPH. All were guys who thought they wouldn't need to launch hard to beat me. They let the clutch out easy thinking they could catch up easy but never do. Done right an S2000 can launch well. You can see the anger in the face of poor guys. They are so pissed because they thought your S2000 was a Miata.

Now a good driver in the same GT, maybe he could have a car or two on me by 100MPH, maybe. Road & Track seems to agree with my thoughts of it being a = race. They show the GT getting to 60 in 5.3 secs. They have the S2k doing it in 5.4 secs. Both hit the 1/4 mile in 13.9 secs but the GT was going about 1 MPH fatser. They showed the 350Z being a little slower then either. I know the mags very but from the stock 350Zs and GTs I have run it seems to be about right... This makes these cars fun because it is = it could be decided by the driver.

All of the above was before my CAI and TP. I have not crossed any of those cars since I have done either mod ...

Nice. Comparing car-penis size with a stock S2000 is kind of silly. Maybe a Camaro or Corvette would suit you better? Or maybe a Mustang GT?
Yep, what comes around goes around eh?

I was going to be nice to the V6 stang owner, but I remember that the GT owner was a jackass. I also remembered the people on this forum were in favor of the GT owner, so I'm assuming what I did was okay?

Hey I can't help that my s2000 is so much faster than his mustang. I also can't help the fact that I'm way cooler too. *shrug* [/QUOTE]
I can only dream of getting next to you on the street.

And sell your S2000 for a SRT4.
Why? Is that supposed to be some knock on the SRT4?

You're the guy who buys a nice car so others will like you and give you attention, right? Sad.
