An S2000 is a "real" car, a car that can embarrass even SRT-10 ACRs and Z06s on a "real" race track, considering the hundreds of extra horsepower they have.

08 SRT-10 ACR race tires - 1:55.7 (Car and Driver)
Evasive S2000 street tires, stock power - 1:56.7
05 Z06 street tires - 2:01.0 (Car and Driver)
100% stock S2000 CR street tires - 2:03.5 (Charles Ng)

Ok, I couldn't help but share. I just wish more people knew what some "slow" cars can do on a "real" race track.

I read the other thread that got locked. Most people who do stuff like that are generally tool bags. They have no idea what a "real car" is. Just take heed in knowing that you were driving your s2000 and he was hanging out of the window of his friends car. Idiot.

Reading that post reminds me of the TLC Song "No Scrubs"

"a scrub is a guy that can't get no love from me
hanging out the passenger side
of his best friend's ride
trying to holler at me"

I'll tell you what isn't a real car - this. There was no Z06 for 2005.

Depends on the track. Put the same cars on Oschersleben, probably not so close for the CR.
