Honda cup on speed channel
 
saw this and had to laugh my ass off... they had some idiot on there who said "the s2000 is the best off the showroom floor racecar" :1

they talk up the s2000 constantly through the entire video then a FWD civic hatch wins the race, and a FWD integra wins the season

and a g2000 (gay) wheel falls off around a corner... all the s2ks have stock powerplants

There's more to racing than just the car. You do know the driver makes a difference in racing? :1 The S2000 is a badass sportscar. Don't be jealous that the S2000 beats up on all the domestics that you love. :-*

Yellow hatch won i belive? That was funny, they played it off as the hatch being fwd was unreliable and hard on equipment yada yada yada...---- still gotthe job done...and at a massive cost difference just to buy into the sport....92-95 hatch vs s2000? come on....that buys alot of parts...

bullshit, car and driver did a road track test 01 s2k vrs 01 mustang GT

guess which had faster times around the track... LOL

torque owns you. s2ks suck on any track that has very tight corners (1st gear or bog 2nd) or long straights (no balls)

ill ldig up the artical if i had to...

the s2k handles great, is a fun car, but its not a road racer in stock form

any ls1 camaro/svt mustang will toss its salad around any track (unless its made for go-karts *cough* autocross)

johnny....i wish like high hell you could bring your mustang over here. or the stangs here would get out and try to run with the honduh's. -hell, even the skylines or silvias/180's. They would get ran in the ground so dam hard. :'(

And yes, there are mustangs over here....I also saw a 68-69camaro to. -Z28. OF all of the weekends I go out usally 2 or 3 times a month to run our cars, never once have I ever seen anything like that out at least trying. :-\

what in autocross? thats not racing...

why do you think they are so much better? because they are underpowered?

Re: Honda cup on speed channel
 
eh

ther s2000 is ok, im sure its fun... its too slow to compete against real cars around a race track

they get their advantage from braking... which doesnt help much if there are any straight aways


So how did the S2000 perform in its role as giant killer? Not as well as I'd hoped. Our debut was at GingerMan, where I was able to lap in the 1:38 range -- quicker than the Camaro in our comparison test and under the T2 track record but, alas, more than a second slower than the pony cars in my class. I wound up fourth out of five.

The lesson that emerged was this: The S2000 is a sweet car to drive anywhere, but it has trouble keeping up with the big torque generators at the start of a race, exiting slow corners, and on long straightaways. It thrives on circuits composed primarily of medium-fast and fast corners, such as Nelson Ledges and Connecticut's Lime Rock Park. Mid-Ohio doesn't fall into that category, and that, plus schedule conflicts, led me to skip the 2000 runoffs. I'd about decided that the S2000 was capable of annoying the giants, but killing them was another matter.
exactly what i said :)

autocross, our retarded 1/8m "drag strip" whenever they feel like setting it up, the mountains, highway 58 you name it.

and autocross is not racing.....like ive said it before. either-
1. you tried it once in the stang and got your ass handed to you
or
2. you fucked it up really really bad.

could only go one of 2 ways. drag racing. theres a real competitive competition. lets drive straight for 1320ft then stop as fast as we can so we dont get into the sand trap :1
not rockin on it, just simply stating that theres more skill involved in a circuit/autocross race. thats all.

autocross is for pussies plain and simple. you cant get out of 2nd gear, this exactly why honda guys and japs love autocross, no power needed.

FWD? 100 at the wheels? TRY AUTOCROSS YOU'LL LOVE IT! :-*

c&d did a track test of these four cars:
audi TT
mustang mach1
s2k
350z touring
and they ended up in this order

1. 350z
2. Mach 1
3. S2k
4. Audi TT

handling only gets you so far, if everything you race is way faster you cant compete... that is why there are classes...

s2ks have some of the stiffest chassis around. Good handling can actually help win races you guys :y
