Dude you need to take a chill pill, you seriously have a chip on your shoulders. How old are you? You sound like a grumpy old man.

We are sorry Mr. perfection!

Add me to your ignore list as you once claimed you would, or stop whining like an 8 year old girl.

If he feels that he can CHANGE the world by comming on to this forum and waving his finger, let him be. This has gone on longer then it should of. My point was made, as was his. Leave it at that.

Steve, you better post in every single thread involving speeding and drag racing (off track that is). Because if not, this little rant you just went on, was compleatly pointless. How you justify some speeding as ok, and others not, is beyond me.

Its obvious u dont live in The MIA, Brute will back me up on this, because the speed limit on most highways may be posted as 60...but if ure doing anything under 90, ure getting ran over.
It was nice talking to you, thanks for pointing out the spell check button. Ill be sure to use it from now on. Now, if there was only a button for pointless ranting...

Racing another car on an empty stretch of straight highway is one thing, dodging traffic going 50 mph faster than everyone else, or racing through a school zone at mid-afternoon is quite another. Just because both are on the "street" doesn't mean that everyone who posts in this forum has to express approval. People who race on public roads need to have some sense of responsibilty and some common sense.

Considering the number of posts relating to S2000's losing control when the back end slides out, I would guess that as the car leans, the tires change camber enough to negatively affect traction, and/or the stock tires don't slip progressively, but rather either have traction, or don't. I've never driven on S03's, so I can't judge them on an S2000, but every pair of BFG performance tires I've ever ran allowed the rear to step out slowly, never just slipping out. Perhaps it was the cars they were mounted on, but I have a feeling it is the tires as much as the car. Has anyone mounted a different brand tire on their S2000, and noticed a change in behavior as the car is slid around a corner?

A wing or diffusers is the best resolution to this problem. The Lift on the rear end is so great after 110, that stickier Rubber wouldent do much to help. Atleast not in comparison to what I mentioned. Im sure, if you were to combine the three, You would have a highspeed corner-lovin S...

I'm not justifying anything. 140MPH on public roads is stupid and irresponsible, period.

You seem to be having trouble comprehending this. Honestly, I don't care. If you want to condone kids driving beyond their skill level on public roads and putting us all in danger, go ahead.

Well going back to the point of the thread............
Yeah a wing should help with the grip in the rear for high speed cornering, I will look into one as soon as I get more time in my S, which do you guys recommend?

S2K walks the E36 every time. E36 240HP sucks. E46 333 HP is a differant animal.
