I remembered when I had my all motor RSX type S I was worried and scarred of racing S2000's in that car. And now in my Stage 2 STi I don't even want to waste my time racing an S2k anymore. hahaha. Torque FTMFW!
haha nice! made me feel better hehe

totally agree with ya, after my last race with one I don't really see the difference of running them or the new civic sis, but I wouldn't mind hitting a canyon with them to see what's up in regards to that... Forced induction would be a totally different story though

STi's may only trap 103 but they still run low 13's. if you read my other post you'd see that i was extremely impressed by the car's power band and crazy top end consistency, which was better if not equal to mine

power to weight ratio: those things do way approx. 2,000 lbs as previously posted. if anything, were talking extremely even conditions in a race...not blowing the doors off

A Cayenne Turbo S will take down a Stage 2 STi IMO. They are just nutty fast and all you have to do is press ddown the gas. Turbo S(09+) run mid to high 12s consistently

How can you guys be losing to an s2k thats not Turbo'd/supercharged?

Those things are pigs. Regardless of how high their redline is, you should be stomping on it with a stock sti.

nothing to be really proud of but just cruising around late at night this kid in a dodge stratus (from what i could tell) nudged forward at stop light initiating a race. I didnt even try to launch, just let out gently and then punched it. He had no chance, and then at next stop light he asked the infamous question, "what u got in it?" Its bone stock, and he was like its quick as ****! Figured he wanted more and just let out gently again while he sat there spinnin tires and i just left him
