Default me vs s2000

Im on the highway the other night, and theres this kid in an s2000 with a body kit and exhaust. I flie up next to him and drop it into 3rd and just sti at like 65 i give him 3 honks and he at frist doesnt understand what that means so he just sits there, i try it again and he goes, i pull about 1 - 2 cars on him and keep them up to 130 i hit the brakes and he flys by. I got off at the next exit.

nice run. s2000's are pretty quick from what Im told. I've never gotten the chance to race one. Do you have any mods?

Not really in a drag race. They are more of a handling car.

stock for stock, an s2000 vs 99+GT would be pretty even if both guys can drive. the race could go either way.

I would say the GT would win in a drag.

It's believable. The S2000 is a tricky car to drive, I don't have one so I couldn't tell you what gear(s) are best for it's sweet spots from a roll. If it's anything like driving my car, getting into it's power band will take a while.

Yea ive been in one before, my sisters boyfriends, there quick but they make there real power high in the rpm range, it feels like my GT is a lot more torquey, but they feel nice, In my opinion thats the best honda you can buy besides the nsx lol
