I see your point in saying that the stook is made to drive through the curves, but the S is not a bad straightline car either, it's a quick car. It will beat a stock WRX easily, (i use to have one) I've also walked over my friend with a WRX with no cats, and the s2k will walk over stock Mustang GT's the years before this year. So the S2k can compete in drags too, it's just not the best, but it doesn't mean it sucks either,

and it is fun revving up the freeway ramp waiting for the vtec to kick in, to me that's a blast too, nothing wrong with that, just because with have a twistie battling car, doesn't mean we can't have fun driving straight either.

 

I know

 

how fast can s2000 go around a curve anyway? fastest i've done around a curve is about 55 or 60...

 

depends on the curve

 

This isn't a serious question is it? If it is: Jesus-Titty-ing-christ man go back to school. I recommend physics 101.

 

 

Well said, I agree with every word.

 

More than once?



Santa, please bring me a sleigh full of clutches and differentials to support my 6,500 rpm clutch drops. I just have to show that all important person driving the Ford or Chevy or Evo who's boss.

 

When did "S2000 Talk" turn into "Street Encounters"?

I'm sorry dimitrir, but in your 16 days on these boards I think you've been lurking in the wrong parts of S2Ki.

 

If you look around I think you'll find several owners here that have performed multiple 7,000rpm clutch dumps with no problems, just as you'll find several owners that blew their diffs (which is the weak link mind you, not the clutch in our s2k's).

One owner claimed 150 clutch dumps at the strip, and never encountered a problem. DavidM and another boardmember performed many 6-8k clutch dumps one after another whilst testing launching techniques for their S2k's, and everything held up fine. I think its a give and take thing, and I personally am not going to do 7k drops off every stoplight I go...but I do think it can take a limited amount of abuse at the very least.
