Dont think most of those were actual races. The cars wouldnt have pulled, backed off and pulled again and they both did it back and forth?

A ~2900lbs 600whp turbo car should pull pretty good on a ~3500lbs 700whp centrifugal supercharged car, and that's what happened..

The s2000 missed a gear or something on the first run..

They only ran like twice (multiple camera angles are shown), and the back and forth was the s2000 passing then shifting/misshifting.. And then passing again (first race)

On the second race, the s2000 started a car length back to make it more interesting for the camaro..

The S driver shifts really slow it seems or he missed. Also, I'm pretty sure that year camaro is heavier then 3500.

They're like 3400lbs, with the blower it should be about 100lbs heavier not including driver and passenger weight.. The s2000 is probably closer to 3200lbs with the driver and an average size passenger..

My car bone stock with me in it and a full tank was 2980lbs and I had not removed the spare and there were no added items in the car..

So depending on fuel level and other variables, those should be pretty decent estimates..

You have a s2000 that weighs 1850lbs?!

Did you cut holes in every piece of metal to get it that low?!
