I'm finding it pretty hard to understand how an SUV can outbrake an S2000. I don't know all the factors involving the collision, I'll admit, but it does sound strange.

Still, OEM looks by far the best to me. Add the front lip if so desired.

I was >100yds back. She had a good 3 second head start braking.
I have new snow tires on. Braking grip is BAD. Still was breaking in the tires... that's why was going only 65mph in middle lane.


For all the smarta$$e$ with the tailgating comments.
Please give up driving.
