Well...I am just going to throw my 2 cents in.

2004 Honda S2000
2.2L I-4
240HP 162TQ
2835 Pounds

2004 Honda Accord V6
3.0L V6
240HP 212TQ
3285 Pounds

In my car (04 V6 Accord), stock, I ran a 14.4. I raced an S2000 stock vs stock, and it raped me, smaller engine, lighter car, much higher redline. This same guy went, and ran a 13.7 in his stock at the track I go to. I got in it and pulled a 13.8 as well. So probably it's that the guy that was cocky that wanted to race you just thought he was all badass, got nervous, and toasted himself. If it was me driving that S2000, I'd be starting in first gear at 20, not second gear.

So I highly doubt that stock for stock, S2000 vs 92 5.0 LX, that the Mustang would beat him unless the S2k shifted way early or just didn't know what he's doing. Just my two cents for it.

What difference does it make if the vid camera is digital or not? Just motion capture it. Somebody you know has to have a vid card that can do it.

Actually all that is needed is an adapter to input from Camera to PC. Doesn't actually have to be "Digital". I sell electronics and **** (Well used to about a couple months ago) and that's one thing people always asked was if they could take their VHS tapes etc and convert them onto PC.

92StangBang.....of course stock for stock he'd win. And you say with your mods you doubt he'd win, well no kidding, mods do that to cars, they make them faster. So yeah, if you got the mods and are pushing mid 13's, and the best you can push out of an S2k is 13.7, then ya 13.5 > 13.7. But stock for stock he'd tool you.

I wonder where the 13 sec slip came from with an Accord. Must be some sort of happy track or tail wind. I wont say he didnt run it, but I have yet to see an Accord run that good, or even near the 14's. So whatever ya did to it, cool.

um ok, who gives a **** about how slow my ride is? That is nowhere near the point of this topic. If you're going to sit there and diss on the S2000, then get off your lazy *** and go run it, then post the video of you whopping his ***.
