Talk to John Eagle Honda in Houston and tell them S2KI sent you. They are a sponsor and a really enthusiastic bunch.

BTW: Red is the fastest color

The phenomenon that you are referring to is called "lift throttle oversteer".

This is not strictly true......

Red is the fastest colour available in the US, however, Monte Carlo Blue is the fastest colour overall

That is the typical name for the behavior... and trust me: you don't need to tell a 911 owner about trailing throttle oversteer (TTO)

911s have quite a reputation for nasty TTO

Pre 1990's 911's ...not so true in the 993, and not true at all in the 996's. Right now, the S2000 is more likely to TTO then any of the newer 911's.

It's just an old reputaion....

Cheers!
