i let my friend drive my car and there was this riced out corolla messin with us and so my friend asked to race him and i was like yea sure go ahead...dont fawk nothing up...and we were going like 89 and he downs it...tries to go to 4th and actually downed it to 2nd...that shit revved like crazyyy i got fawkin pissed...then he tried to put it to 4th after the miss shift and he puts it back in 2nd again...the car was swurving a bit but nothing happened...i was wonderin how much damage u think that put on the engine...im really cautious about my car and i was hoping it wouldnt hurt it so bad since this is the 1st time this has ever happened...any clutch or engine issues u think?

In the gallery?
CLutch - might be okay
Engine - ****ed up head. Probably need a new valvetrain at best.
How does it drive now?
89mph in 2nd would put the revs at like 12,500 rpm or so I think if he let the clutch out all the way. Doing it twice doesnt help.

. Who the hell needs different forums, I hear that's way overrated.

2 other San Diego guys down here over revved thier S's and dropped valves like it was hawt
Just keep a good ear out and if you hear anything clicking or clanking like crazy or out of the norm then kill the motor right away and inspect it.Good luck, and friends don't let friends race thier S2000's.

to the original poster, you cracked me up as well with the second half of the story, where he tries to put it into 4th and goes into 2nd again
