Default Very daft question.

What's the 0-60 of the S2000 if you don't VTEC?

From a standing start up to 6K then changing up etc...

Reason I ask is even below VTEC in 2nd and 3rd, it still pulls well and is nice and nippy in traffic.

Just goes bonkers after 6K, which I love

Probably quite slow as you'd have to change gear a few times I reckon.

I seem to remember reading that the car makes around 180bhp at peak if you keep it out of VTEC. That may help in determining the likely non-VTEC 0-60. Although quite why you would want to stay out of VTEC, I don't know!

In some colours you have no choice (Pensioner Blue for example)
