Don't be so proud, we don't want to read about another S2000 crash. Unless you were on a track?

I didn't realize a stock S2000 was capable of 161 mph. I thought the top speed ranged from 150-155mph....Excellent. Was she at 9,000 rpm in 6th gear when you reached top speed?

congrats...
just wondering why you stopped at 8000?
next time you gotta try 9000!
(dont worry, the car wont let you go much over that!!- personal experience from several times hitting the rev limiter)

Hey, thanks.

I was looking to change gear at 9,000 and keep her going, but there was this slowpoke up ahead of me coasting along at about 75 mph, so I had to let off the gas. The car is so stable that you feel like you're standing still......fantastic machine!!

"Whats more exciting, having sex, or VTEC'ing?"
"Having sex.....while VTEC'ing!"
