S2000 Talk Discussions related to the S2000, its ownership and enthusiasm for it.

Is the S2000 a modded import magnet?

Do what I do. I ignore them and travel the speed limit/flow of traffic.

Nothing pisses them off more than being ignored, and they can't do jack about it.

I've had my MY02 for a week and a half, and already had a half dozen UCI students with chopped springs and fart pipes try to race me. The most fun was a businessman in an NSX that I fooled myself I kept up with.

I always get the "revving on me while traveling in the opposite direction" thing from the ricers around here. Like I'll be going down the main drag headed south and some retard headed north in a riced out neon for example will rev it up just as he passes me going the opposite direction. Kind of grates on the nerves because I get that about 3-5 times a day around here. Sometimes it makes me want to bust a u-turn and lay waste to the riced out neon, or toyota echo, or chevy cavalier or whatever the hell it happens to be but I know damn well if I actually did that and pulled up along side them they wouldn't have the balls to race anyway so bleh.

you guys know that sometimes, these guys just respect our cars and it's their way of saying, "what's up."

I ran up beside a modena once and just wanted to see/hear it take off, so I got next to him, smiled revved, and he took off (i didn't race, I just paced and watched it go), I caught up and gave him a big thumbs up, he did the same, and we went our separate ways.

I did that with a Porsche 911 once... I was on my way home from a long trip... I caught up with him.. he looked over at me.. and dropped it.. when I caught back up I gave a big thumb up.. then dropped it... then once he decided to track me down again we just rolled together for a long ways til the interstate split and we went our seperate ways....
