Met a guy at UCR orientation who "knew" everything about S2ks
First off all, after he told me the S2K did 0-60 in 4.9, I thought it was a bit amusing. He claimed that Road and Track magazine tested the 0-60 performance. BTW, I read no where in the magazine that the S2k does it in 4.9secs.
If I am wrong, please correct me.
But anyways since I thought it was pretty funny that he said he knew more about S2000s than I did so I asked him to question me. Then it REALLY got ridiculus, he started to ask me about the base price of the S2k and how many gears it had, give me a break guy. Then just to toy with him, I asked him the engine code, the chassis code (didn't even know what a chassis was), compression ratio then he had no idea cuz he was a moron. He must've felt like a fool cuz he seriously thought he knew everything about the S2K cuz he said his dad has an S2K. THis guy knew absolutely nothing about cars.
What I really thought was funny was that he told me he never drove the S2k cuz he didn't know how to drive stick and said he had trouble driving driving the car reverse out of the driveway (which he never did). I'm glad I'm going to school with this schmoe so that I can ridicule the hell out of him, hope he drops out, stupid arrogant moron, hahah.
On the ligher side, I met a guy who was into American muscle cars who wanted to get into the Import scene, haha, he was really cool. That made my day when I heard him say this, I'm glad more people I've met are giving respect to the import scene.

Actually they did a comparison test of the S2K vs the NSX and there was a typo stating that both cars did 0-60 in 4.9 sec. It was in a Road and Track that came out earlier this year.
