Default s2000 v. Turbo IS300 on 495 in MD

Hey, just curious, who did I run into on 495 on tuesday night around 11pm on 495- we raced about 10 times. Silver S2000 with bodykit, and passenger said he had intake and exhaust-

I was impressed, the car was VERY quick for having just those mods.

Anyway, if it's anyone here, nice car, and hope to run into you again sometime.

What was the outcome.

I presume you beat the S2000 quite comfortably?

well, yes, but that isn't the point.

Was just looking around to see if maybe the driver was a regular board member or anything, and to give him props on his car.

There's a local performance shop (Oddly enough one owner lives below me and just fired up his RX7) that has turbo'd a couple of them. One is boosting 18 psi ON STOCK INTERNALS. Making something like 450 hp to the wheels. Absolutely amazing.

I was thinking about getting an IS300 to replace my S2000, but they're still a bit pricey used...
