i going down the nj prky s. messing around with a probe and jetta ,i leave them and slow down and i notice a pair of blue lights trying to catch up i come out the toll booth and slow down to 60mph to let him catch up ,he get right on my bumper i drop into 3rd and punch thinking it's some integra he stays on my a#% until about 98mph and i start slowly pulling away about 2 car lenghts and slow to see what type of car it was ,turns out it was a honda s2000 dark grey i get behind him and he bounces through traffic trying to shake me i catch an open lane and end up in front and flash my hazzards we got up to about 115mph or so ,i get ready to exit and he flashes his hazzards as he passes ,i know he should have killed me but hey a win is a win

My friend has a s2000 and i just raced him on the highway and he beat me. He went to 4th and i went to 3rd and we raced from about 80 and we stayed even for a few seconds and as soon as i shifted to 4th he pulled til we let off at 110.

Nice kill

Man, I had a chance to race one once. But we were at a dead stop, with TOO much road for him to rev-up and smack me down. Nice job though!

Nice race! S2000 are extremely fierce if they race properly, so props to you.

yep...

its all about driver skill and who is willing to beat their car more. Most guys are know with fast cars like a s2000/A6/M/Lex will toy with people but wont even come close to redline. They would rather let the other guy go then push their rather hefty investment.

I saw a Comptech Supercharged S2000 run 15.6 @ Maple Grove last week. LOL. Too bad most people in S2000s don't know how to rev the crap out of their car or launch to get the most out of the engine.
