S2000 Talk Discussions related to the S2000, its ownership and enthusiasm for it.

Curious, what would cause an s2k to spin out of control?

After the apex to turn 9 while unwinding the wheel, I got on the power a little too abruptly; might have hit VTEC. Rear end started to come around; countersteering while staying on the throttle didn't help. Did about a 270

Many times...on the autox course. 3 times in one run once that was embarrassing. Oh, and once at the bus stop on Buttonwillow. Not sure what happened, sweeping left about 75MPH, was straightening out then all of a sudden I was sideways then off the track and in the dirt. Next run group an NSX did the exact same thing in the same way at the same place. I thought maybe it was oil, not sure.
