Default 00S2k vs 04M3

Whats up S2k members?

I was driving south from Nashville doing about 65mph. All the sudden, I saw bright HID headlights coming up on me quickly. It was this beautiful BMW M3!! He slowed down to cheak out my S2k. He downshifts and waves me to get on it. I really didnt want my first race for the S2k be a lost, but i gave it a shot. I downshifted into 3rd and the lovely sound of Vtec was engaged and ready. We both looked forward and the race was on!
As the tach reached 9k, he pretty much had a foot or two. Into 4th, the interstate monster M3 started to pull on me. Into 5th, he was slowly pulling but the S2k was not gonna make it look like a punk! The M3 was probaly a car lenth ahead and we started to come upon a curve on the interstate. I had faith in the S2k and didnt let off the gas. As we entered the curve the M3 slowed while my S2k passed him and took the lead!! Finally after the curve, i keep the Vtec screaming hoping the M3 wouldnt catch up. I let off around 135mph.
He flashed me to pull over the next exit. He quickly got out of the car and suprised how fast the S2k kept up. He had a Dinain snorkle and exhaust. Mine was stock! He was cool and the M3 was dope. I only had my S2k for about 3 weeks, but i thought the M3 would pull harder. I am very happy I got the car.

THANKS FOR READING!!

Wait till under-baited gets hold of this one.

Great kill. A stock S2000 will destroy a pos m3, every time.

LOL...now now Pakisho!

Now, realistically, there is a term called "sand bagging" that comes to mind.

Anyways, I'm sure it was fun for you. Nice run!

nice kill. the same thing happened to me a week after i got my s2k. except the guy i raced was not cool, after i passed him at 135 (cause he was to scared to go any faster) i caught up to him and tried to give him a thumbs up. thats when he looked at me like whatever i got more money than u. but its all good i still like m3's there so sweet.

Sorry to inform you guys, but when someone is ahead and they let off because the road curves, you don't win the race just because you're too stupid to brake

BTW-An E46 properly driven will destroy an S2000..I hope you guys know this already and are just pretending

i'm sure most of us, at least Pakisho and I (sea silver too, based on his response), know the true potential of both cars in stock form. I only posted b/c Pakisho made a comment that humored me...

That's hilarious...nice run but as mentioned, the M3 is significantly quicker especially at those speeds. You might run a close race from a dig to about 50-60 mph but from about 80mph and up the M3 should have walked away.
