i'm sorry. 155 mph, in a canyon, around a curve. I don't think the s2000 could manage a canyon pass at that speed. Nothing short of an Formula 1 vehicle could do that.

s2000 on a skidpad pulls .91g stock. (Road and Track Feb 2007)

curve must be the largest and longest corner EVER, located in a canyon.
^^^this is what happens when you don't read the thread...

When you have the car at the dealership to have the speedo replaced, please replace it with a Civic. I hear they love these type of threads over there.

so i'll go to the shop this morning to have my speedo replaced. wondering what caused this. milage count is also off between double and tipple.

oh btw, for some reason, our speedo can not display more than 198 mph. that really sucks. really fast cars do 200+
155mph on a canyon corner = car goes off cliff -> you die.
Get your shit fixed.

Maybe the VTEC is stuck or something.

I mean, if your VTEC was flowing all the time it might give you mondo boost.

But that much HP can trick you out. Get it fixed ASAP.
