I had a guy in an SS 454 1/2 ton Pickup try to race me the other day. What was he thinking? I had at least a 1/4 mile between us in 2nd gear.

cavelier. Unfortunately, It was only a minute after I got into the car so I wan't going to push it past 6000. I still handily showed him that he was not going to beat me to the lane merge.

Let's see...
It seems like most of the time it is some car I wouldn't expect.
The last one was a Hyundai(sp?) Tiberon.
The really weird thing was the surprised look on his face when I past him.
Why the surprise dude? This aint no Miata.
Oh and on the plus side. Now when I blow by someone it is really loud. BAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH

I'm thinking most of the people I encounter don't think they can beat the S2000, they just want a small demo

When I come accoss something cool I do the same thing.

Still remains an ambulance driver and his friend who offered to turn their lights on to clear the way!
