i've raced 3 S2000's officially, and messed around with countless others.

one was turboed, and pulled on me almost none. almost dead even >100. thats when i was stock. i blame his tune.


one had an intake. sounded mean but i had an intake/tune so it really didn't put up a fight, or at least the driver sucked.


other one was all stock. i was messing with him, getting in and out of the throttle, i truly manhandled him. i think it was one of the older ones.

Some of these cars are pretty stout, my bud with the Ls1 has a friend with a brand new one, he can beat the S2000 (ls1) but the S got another guy with a bone stock 5.7L GTO from a roll. I was pretty impressed.

Hmmm...I would think you should have him no problem. I raced a S2000 that had exhaust and intake work done and I beat him from a roll pretty bad (5-6 CLs). I sprayed of course, but honestly either he really sucked at driving or something was drastically wrong with his car.

5-6 car lengths from a 40 roll with a 75 shot on your side.... pretty much equates to a close race between a non FI 2V.... trust me I had a basic bolt on 2V with 4.10's and raced shadowdrake which just had a catback and an untuned75 shot.... he put 3 lengths on me from 40-90and kept pulling after 90.... it's gonna be close from a roll

Stock for stock should be a drivers race. You'll have the advantage from a dig and your mods should help. Those honda motors dont start to make power til they get up in the rpm range. Does the honda have any mods?
the S2K is quick and it can beat a 04 stock for stock, but a 05+ should win
I'm sure your V8 brethern will disagee with you. I know they will handle your 6 but it's a drivers race against the 99 to 04 stangs.
I have seen many 04's and below lose to the S2K's on youtube and other sites, but number-wise, the mustang should be a bit slower.

well, w/e, if he races from a roll, those light S2K's should win, so he better go from a dig if he wants a chance.

Dude I've seen videos of SRT-4's beating vipers & V06's on the SRT forum video sectionand Youtube. But I dont think a stock skittle will beat those cars. The S2000 is a low 14 second car. That Stang should also be a low 14 second car. but like you said whatever.
