Well not really. This past weekend I changed my oil, replaced the spark plugs, coolant, etc... Today on my way home, I came up behind what appeared to be an automatic s2000. I am like what the hey, lets see if he wants some. I gently push on the gas and let my exhaust rumble and all of a sudden he leans into the middle of the car like "Homies" do. Light turns green, he guns it as do I, then I get into the other lane and we are neck in neck, then I am slowly but surely passing him. :banana: At that point we are doing about 70 or so, so I let off the gas and apply the brakes. He decides to now go like 30 mph, I guess because he was embarassed. Ahhh my cougar is so good to me.

nice kill...
automatic s2000 = impossible (honda never made one)
BUT, in your defense, the S2000 is the type of car that requires and excellent driver. It has zero bottom and top end torque. which means that in order to achieve the 6.1 0-60 time that honda and all the magazines boast, the driver must rev to roughly 4k rpm and dump the clutch, and then make up-shifts at 7500rpm instead of riding the motor all the way to its 8900rpm redline. If you drive an S2000 the way you have to drive a Civic, then you're looking at mid-7's for 0-60 time which is very beatable (even by a Cougar... especially with powertrain mods like yours and mine). No doubt in my mind that the driver of the S2000 was, in fact, a dousche bag. :loser:
A car is only as good as its driver. An S2000 is not a force to be reckoned with unless the driver is a total retard. In this case, you beat one hell of a car, and one hell of an idiot ( :kick: ); you killed two birds with one stone and I applaud you.:bowdown:
