Hi everyone! Bought my first S2000 yesterday - an '05 car in Metallic Blue! Looking forward to picking it up next Monday...

So are there any tips or advice that I need? I'm extremely familiar with front-mid engine rear-wheel drive cars having built and driven a Caterham 7 for 6 years, and I've also driven a Boxster S and a Peugeot 306 GTi-6 for a while - all having been fine performance cars. So advice like 'take it easy in the wet' is not really what I'm looking for.

I'm in the Seattle area - any other owners around here on this forum, and which tracks should I look to take it to?

Cheers,
Roger.

 

Welcome to the site, You'll find plenty of info here.

 

welcome and congrats on the purchase!

 

Roger,

There is an active group in the Seattle area; check out the NW forum.

The closest track is Pacific Raceways, near Kent, south of Seattle. It's a good track, 2.25 miles around, and there are many opportunities to drive on it. Portland International Raceway is three hours away; I've not yet had the pleasure, but people speak well of it. Spokane Raceway also is fun, I hear, but a bit farther away.

There also is a lot of autocross in the area. Fun time with fun people, and you really see some great cars and drivers.

Welcome!
