Default Driven - S2000 vs CTR

Just watched a re-run of the 2002 Driven episode where they race the S2000 against the CTR. Some of the facts about the S where (he said he switched the TC off, and it has 220bhp), but it's a good laugh non the less.

They sometimes repeat it during the week. Check the Men & Motors schedule.

I'll have a copy mate, what's the size and can you host it?

Can't believe I missed this, I watched the episode and turned it over for 5 minutes!

I shouldnt have opened my mouth!

Ok, I was going to post this in a few days, but..................

I have a rather good collection of S2000 mpgs, including:

driven - s2000 vs Civ Type R
top gear - S2000 vs Boxster vs Z4
Various best motoring head to heads on track
an interesting vid of boxster vs s2000
nurburgring testing video
driven Jason Barlow reviews S2000
Top Gear - Tiff Needel tests S2000
Clarkson - Top 100 cars s2k vs elise vs BMW
various street race vids and top speed vid

etc etc.............


Now, I reckon these will fill a disk maybe 2, either way my web hosting wont cope with this. So Im planning on putting them together, possibly on a VCD format with menus etc.

I guess lots of people would like this disk, the problem being it will involve loads of donkey work for me going too and from the post box, burning disks etc etc.

So, Ill check tomorrow(Friday) how many disks ill need and let people know. Once I know, Ill post some further instructions on how Im going to do it. But I think the best way is if people mail me blank cds, with a self addressed envelope for return and Ill do a big batch all together.

Only problem is Im on holiday in a week, so you guys may have to wait a little.

Andy

I'd be up for this and also have Jason Barlow's original top gear s2000 review if this isn't one of the ones on your list. I could mail it for inclusion if you take this on

I am working on men and motors tonight. my shift started at 7pm. i also laughed when he mentioned traction control. all the tests with the s2000 i have seen have been on a wet track. the guy sitting next to me said he didn't like the look of the s2000, not knowing that i owned one!
