this question is only for regular local streets not the race track.

most turns is 90 degree here in southen california, i find out that 90% of the time i will downshift into 2nd gear before making a turn. The other 10% is 1st and 3rd gear. most the time my car is not above 6000rpm when i turn, so I know i am too chicken to make a very fast turn.

What are everyone's experience?

also what are the fastest speed when you make a turn and what kind of turn? These 2 questions is include anytime you driving the s2000, anytime include on the race track.

 

Usually take 'em in 2nd too. Sometimes can do it in 3rd, but then the revs are pretty low and that ain't a whole lot of fun. I've never really tried to push the limits of the S2000, but I'm sure they're pretty lofty...

 

2nd for all turn with an exit speed of < 50 MPH (99% of them)

 

Mostly 2nd gear for me...

 

I usually down shift to 2nd too.

 

in everyday driving i usually downshift to 3rd taking the turn at about 25mph if i wanna get the revs up a little bit i'll put it in second, on a side note do most of you guys double clutch when you downshift to make these turns?

 

Mine is in the "R" position

 

I use 3rd for those sweeping right and left turns where I need not accelerate out of quickly, but typically on the tighter or more aggressive corners, I hell-toe it into 2nd right before the turn and speed out of the corner.
about 60% in 2nd- 40% in 3rd almost never in 1st.

 

I almost always downshift to 2nd for turns...
