if it was an LS1 (1998 or higher) then yeah, they pull on a stock S2000 hard.

Stupid V8s? Are engines capable of being stupid?

I have to think that it was LS1 Z28, if this assumption is correct, then it will pull on you, especially on top since LS1 has very strong top end speed. It could be lightly modded, but that is hard to say.

BTW, I wouldn't feel intimidated whenever s2000 gets behind me, I don't get intimidated with any type of cars behind me, not because I'm fast or anything, it's just because it is nothing more than a car, fast cars don't intimidate me, I appreciated it, but not intimidated.

i think he was saying stupid V8's more out of frustration of what sounded like a rough day. lol

yeah i dont expect everyone to be intimidated by the S2000. each person will react differently. i'd be intimidated by cars much faster than mine, but i'd still try to run just for fun.

well i work for a boat company i dont know if any of u are familiar with the boat company Reagal Boats. well i build one of there yachts and i was gluing up a vinyl to a wall and the partner that works with me wanted to be a hard ass and told me that i had to redoit for really no reason and i tell him that i was gonna continue doing it my way and he said "you know what do me a favor, GO THE HOME!!!" i asked him "WHO THE DO YOU THINK YOU ARE!!!" he was just a regular worker like me. he said "I WILL SHOW WHO THE I AM" so he comes up to my face and starts yapping to tell u the truth i did not hear a thing i was on my defensive mode i wasnt gonna let this guy punk me out i was a boxer for a few years. so i close the gap between us and i got real close and he got mad cause i didnt back down and this punk pushes me as hard as he can and i lost balance but didnt touch the floor not one bit and i was about to do a sweet combo on his face but then i thought about the s2000 and said i will not lose the job and the car cause of some fool. I went up to him and patted him on the shoulder and walked out of the boat i tell managment and had them deal with it and sent the both of us home. no results yet on what will happen but i will keep u's posted. i know for sure i aint goin no where but u never know. he just better keep his fat ass in his house cause if i find him its on. and on my way home i had the encounter with the stupid v8!!! it looked like a 98 z28.

You found the single thing the Z28 doesn't suck at... going fast in a straight line.

Nice story. Don't let people get to you. Especially in the workplace
