I told you this kid couldnt drive. S2k's need a good driver with skill to pull the numbers you are talking about. This is an idiot kid with no clue about cars. But I really wasnt impressed with the car. Im sure with the right driver its fast but i did get him by 4 cars. And Ive seen cars with less mods than mine run 13's so I beleive my car is an easy 13 second car. Gears alone are worth about .5 second on there own.

If the kid had any common sense he would of challenge you to a autocross or open track contest, and used his S2k to it full advantage. It always ends up being 1/4 mile times that seem to be the end all of car wars. I have a stock 5.0 ragtop with gears best time was 14:30's at 97 and I know I would not want a S2k behind me on a curvy road.

The S2k IS NOT A DRAG CAR. It's meant to take on Other roadsters like the 350Z drop top, BMW Z roadster, etc. It's got a near perfect 50/50 weight distribution and will own the corners.

I want this guy to go to a dyno, get a few pulls in, post the slip... then go to the track, post that vid along with a timeslip.
and then race this guy at the track instead of out on the street where you don't know if you're actually running a 1/4.

The S2K is a car that is basically tuned as far as it will go unless FI is added.
I remember a test where we put on a Comptech Intake etc and actually LOST horsepower. Mind you Comptech makes some excellent stuff.
There's a Vortech SCed S2K here that I am sure would be willing to race you for 200$ since he must be a ricer too because he owns an import.
