Interesting - considering no one tried a 7500 rpm clutch drop to maximize the acceleration time for the S2000.

Interesting results. Although from my experience, amybe i am wrong, you do more damage to the clutch with a 4500 RPM drop, especially riding it like this guy was. However you do less damage to the rest of the drivetrain this way.

Considering he was launching the wrong way for optimal times, 5.6 is still impressive.

Thanks for the post.
