That's a very good time...

I wish I had less weight too but oh well.

So if you didn't shift into 5th Gear... how did you manage to trap at 103 mph? 4th Gear maxes out at 98 mph.

Andre

But I thought that 4th gear could get up to 103...in a vid on youtube and on my buddy's 06 s2k, I've seen them hit about 101-103 right as rpm's begin to bounce, depending on shift reaction time that is...

Dude, that's awesome!! If you're able to hit these times and possibly something inside the 12's, you'll be very competitive with the latest 350z reving up to 7500 rpm and supposedly doing quarters at mid to low 13s and high 12s with bolt ons...that's insane!! Also, 12s are Lotus Exige territory...

Still though, 13.4 on small add ons!!

There is absolutely no way a basically stock S2000 is going to break into the 12s.

Well, if he's hit mid 13s with just that...swapping out the gears for slightly shorter ones or even just installing an AP1 ecu with a couple hundred extra rpm could do the trick...even if he doesn't break into the 12s...something like 13.1 or 13 flat is still very very impressive...

I dont know, I cant see an n/a s2000 spiinin all the way to third... and running those times... just my .02 If your car did run those times, props to you, but i'm just havin a hard time believin an n/a s2000 with bolt ons (and no gear swap) can run those times..

his time makes sense. a 13.3-13.5 is very doable with a 104 trap. now a 12.9XXX i highly doubt unless your gonna improve that 60 to a 1.6ish <slicks with a diff destroying launch> or add some more power.

congrats on the nice time though.
