Yeah I granny my S a lot too, I might hit VTEC once per cruise. I'm kind of afraid to take a corner too sharp as I am not accustomed to RWD quite yet and the last thing I want to do is curb or put my S in a ditch.

I am still learning the feel of the S. I drive most of my cars pretty grannyish, but when the mood hits I will run it up to the red. The car always puts a grin on my face.

The beauty of the S2000 is that it has distinctive split personality: lets me drive like an old lady or like a teenager. Few other cars allow you to do that.


<6K = Great gas mileage car.
>6K = Great true sports car for the streets.

Keep this kind of behavior for the track.


I get really pissed off at people trying to race me on populated public streets. It is immature, irresponsible, wreckless, and just plain stupid.

I had 2 teenagers in daddy's vette (or daddy's money's vette) follow me around town trying to coax me into racing on wet roads in a populated area. I finally had enough. They pulled up alongside revving the engine and yelling out the window...and I swerved hard at them pulling up just short of their door. The driver swerved to avoid and then over corrected leaving his vette backwards in the middle of the road.

Wow. That sounds like a prefectly reasonable thing to do. Kids try to race you. Try to Make them crash. Hmm. Skip the asking politely business go straight for the kill.

I generally shit it at 3.5K for normal everyday driving but atleast once or twice a day I have to get into VTEC just keep it happy since after all it was given a 9K redline
