How do you park your S
I was curious to see how many of you park just using the parking brake vs those who park with the brake AND leave the car in gear.

Thanx ganstahype. Seems a lot of people are getting Suzuka lately...which sucks for me. So much for exclusivity. The dealers were saying not alot of people liked the silver/red so they are opting for everything else. I have come to like silver/red but too many people have silver.

I was always told to use the shortest gear regardless of which way you're facing on a hill...in the S2000 that is 1st gear.
Right after a track session or heavy brake use, you're not supposed to use the parking brake.

No brainer. Brake on and in gear!!!!! Always. Without fail.
I too had an experience. Brake on but in neutral (not an S2000 though). Rolled backwards and stopped short of doing serious damage to a house and my car by 2 inches! Always in gear and with brake on. Since then, never a problem.
