He was shifting at the right RPM. Seemed like he shorted 3rd because he was letting off.

wow.
starting out of vtec will get bad results 90% of the time. the 5-60 time of the s2000 is almost 2 seconds slower than the 0-60 w/ a correct launch. props to the ep3, does he have a motor swap w/ another k engine

yeah. out of vtec isn't the problem. The EP would've been out of range too. Car has problems or the EP has a different motor.

the z has 100 lbs more torque then are car and people are still either keeping up or beating them...give yourself more seat time then try again.
