Guys,
We all just need to sit back and relax. The S on the outside is still an S. The S on the inside is still an S, so why don't we just leave it at that. I for one don't give a rats ass about AP1 or AP2.

the 2000-2007 Honda S2000 is one of the purest forms of sports cars made in the past 20 years.

This is not a drag car it is a car designed and built to be run on road courses or windy back country roads. Most of all it is a car that needs to be driven for fun and enjoyment. With that being said, I wish all of you who are bitching about which engine is better or worse or which version of the car is better or worse just quit with the negitive postings and just go out drive your car and enjoy it. I hope that the BS will soon stop.
Exactly.

Nice, and because you mentioned my home track here's a pic for ya, and I know you know what track has the signature blue armco...



Would now be a bad time to say this is just about the place on the track I shift up at 9-grand?

Is that you? It was one of my more favorite tracks, but we never didwell there. If you know where the Toe is turns 14-15, that is where I had a fairly bad wreck. A faster car came up on me tried to pass, (not a good place to pass) and caught my inside rear which caused me to loose it and I flipped the car 3 times.

We were both taken to the infield medical center where I proceeded to at least try to beat the sh** out of him, but I had a broken shoulder so I did not cause him any damage.

Long time ago.

Yup! I have been doing Watkins Glen since 1990. My '90 CRX-SiR which got retired from track work in 2001 has about 8,000 Watkins Glen track miles on it, and now I'm working to get the S up there too.

Since you drove there they put in the chicane on the back straight, and now they call it the Inner Loop, although really- we all just call it the Bus Stop. Here is my S when it was very young going into the Bus Stop. Me Luv Watkins Glen.

What the S was meant to do, be it AP1 or AP2

Who cares?

If you think the world is suddenly going to shift on its axis and we are all going to agree and/or have the same perspective, please make sure there is a stopping point on this axis shift, because I will elect to get off.

I cannot think of a more boring world than one in which we all agree... Variety is the spice of life, stop trying to control what others think, learn to go with the flow and respect other people's opinions.
Well, I think it may be fair to assume that the people who have tried to make meaningful contributions to the thread all "care."

Variety is indeed the spice of life.

Hopefully things can be improved with effort, without having to tip the entire planet off axis.
