Autocrossing is parking lot racing. Big fun! (SARCASM) On any real track (Road Atlanta, Summit Point, Limerock Park) a 911 Twin Turbo or a Ferrari 360 will not only eat but destroy a "Mugenized S" any day of the week. What the hell are you are talking about Willis?
I am a Skip Barber graduate and have been to endless track events and know all three cars mentioned above well as far as performance and potential. Pass the pipe you toking on.. Over the edge is right..

sorry but even thought he was a little rough in his wording
a FULL mugen S2000 did lap laguna seca 2.2 sec faster a lap than a 360 and 911 turbo
as unbelieveable as it sounds, the S can carry much higher corner speeds, and the Mugen aero parts along with the performance mods and suspension pieces make the S a truely amazing race car and on ANY race track top speed is not that high, and for those of you such as I that run on the street know, from 27mph to 130 the S is on par with all except maybe 5 cars on earth
Skip barber is nice, but did you ever see the lap times Jenson Button did at Suzuka in a stock s2000?
or JV did in Otmar Snauzauer(VP Honda R&D... a friend of mine I might add) Honda tuned S at silverstone
and to quote my friend Otmar...a proper tuned S will Beat ANY car on earth on a circuit... now you can argue, call me a drug addict, say I'm wrong etc etc... but I think a man who is the boss of Honda F1 engine development and the boss of Honda F1 in general knows a bit more about the S than you do... skip barber teaches, skip barber has never been an F1 pilot.
as far as street racing.. i agree, I will run against a cripple in a wheel chair to a damn drag monster, but i will also suggest that after they win I get to pick the race track
in straight lines i loose often.. but in 60000 miles in 2 s2000 I have only lost 2 freeway street encounters...1 to a nsx, 1 to a diablo... the 360 i ran, the countless 911's, the countless vettes and zo6's.... all..can not play the game like i play the game
and i did run a neon rt4 on a freeway once..from a dead stop... and yes, he jumped all over me... but 3 miles into race, i slowed down to 40... and waited 30 sec for him to vlow by me, just to destroy him again... and as sure as I am sitting here, when i blew by him the second time, on I215 west in vegas, I WAS hitting my pipe and listening to Godsmacks serenity, smoking good grass, what better to do when your waiting for a slow car to catch you just so you can take his soul again and again
ask anyone who knows me If I am telling you the truth.... not 1 will say im lying
this is not a flame, just a clarification

do you need a definition of the word Circuit???
do you understand my statement that your refering to???
25-130 on par with all but 5+ cars on earth
i didnt know drag races started at 25.
I had no clue a s2000 was a drag car.
and my statement refers to a stock s2000 VS the 5 that can beat it being stock
not some 1000 hp supra

Who are you talking like a child. You must think you have something special because you said..."and for those of you such as I that run on the street know, from 27mph to 130 the S is on par with all except maybe 5 cars on earth"
Is the word circuit anywhere in your statement? Nope. You clearly state "street", not a race track, not a circuit...
"in straight lines i loose often.. but in 60000 miles in 2 s2000 I have only lost 2 freeway street encounters...1 to a nsx, 1 to a diablo... the 360 i ran, the countless 911's, the countless vettes and zo6's.... all..can not play the game like i play the game"
Do you lose often or only twice? You lose often to cars that are actually fast or do have you lost to carst that are stock?
A lot of street races do start from 25 mph rolls.
Again, what are some ET/MPH's/Dyno #'s...your the one saying your beating Z06's, exotic sports cars...
How about you come out to Dragway 42 and lay some blistering times. Come to the track and run 13.5@104, I know (as well as we all will) that your full of shit. Come out there and run 12.5@130, then that is a bad car and get my kudos.
