It's absolutely amazing how that thread is playing the part of your typical ignorant domestic drivers. "It's just a Honda." Yeah, and their car is "just a Chevy." What a stupid comment... I love corvettes, but despise some of the owners.

Anyway, love domestics, love imports, why can't some people just give respect where respect is due and acknowledge a fast S2000?

Because its just a Honda to them.. they've probably only seen the teenage version and family car gas savers and have tons of engine swaps and Honda rust..

But to me its just a chevy... A heavy ass pick up truck thats old as hell, beat up, only mod its got is constant weight reduction(rusting) of the amazing 400 tons they already way, and not to mention the gigantic 30 cylinder engines they need to haul around that weight..

So if anything, a Honda is a Honda as well as a chevy IS a chevy.
May I return, the driver that loses his cars overall respect due to his/her atitued when driving it and being an owner?

The comments that I read on the Sideways link are based on ignorance. I respect any model and any person that cares about their car. I have met many owners from Ferrari to a young guy with thoughts of making his $2k Ford better and you must respect them all.

Even on a kill, I always give a Its just respectful.

No, smartasss: I meant '400whp S2K', meaning exactly that, a 400whp S2K, not a 460whp S2K, which is what he was in. See the difference? 60whp means a lot, I drive a 400whp S2K, not a 460whp S2K, I've been in one and know the diff.

My question still stands.
WHy don't you race one then?

Well I will say that this is the fastest car I have ever owned. I am posting "Kills" because it fun to share the experience. I decided last night that I am only going to run cars that I believe will give me a hard time.

The first time I get "Killed" that will be posted as well

I will post my "Third Kill" soon. It involved two Mustangs that were taughting me and actually one got beside and one got behind me. It was weird, acted like animals rounding me up. They messed with the wrong "Wolf"

Well, your question is pretty stupid then. The old Vette he raced didn't belong to him and was modified, therefore he probably doesn't know much about it other than what had happened. But one can speculate from the story, that from how much he pulled, a 400rwhp S2000, or even 399.99rwhp, could've pulled on the Vette also.

P.S. Didn't mean to be a smartass, but since you insisted on calling me one, I had to act like one now.
