S2000 has been unleashed, Porsche Beware

[Rusty]

This past weekend Eric and I went down to Virginia International Raceway (VIR) and did a High Performance Driver event with the Porsche Club of America.

It's safe to say eric bruised the egos of a Bunch of Porsche drivers. This was his first road course event and he passed every car in his group at least once. We're talking Cayman S, GT3, and a purely race built 964 amongst other porsches. There was also a Corvette with a HUGE wing that was a little embarrassed to be passed by a kid in a s2000.

Here is just a tease of Eric tearing it up. I'll have plenty more later.

EDIT: Here is the video!

This is one of the guys we went with in his 993 Replica RSR. This car ran the 24 hours of daytona in 2000.





This is Eric's Instructor. He's a professional driver and currently was driving this Kit car with a Hyabusa engine in it. Him and a non profit group that helps underprivileged kids built the car.


we've got a video and some more Pics coming later tonight.

Looks like fun.

I would still take a 911 over 10 S2K's though

911s are awesome... but I'd prefer the balance of an S2000, or a Cayman. 911s are kinda... badonkadonk with that engine hanging over the rear axle!
That'd be a race preference, though. If it was just ripping around the streets with a kickass car... 911 all the way!

I will definitely have a 911 GT3 someday, they are just badass mother-f#@kers. I've even lost my desire to have an NSX because of the GT3.

i bet if you put the same driver in the porsche, the porsche would win

as for my porsche, it would be the GT3 cup

The cup cars are a whole 'nother level of insanity. Can't really drive them on the street though.

That is wicked sweet.

r-comps?

[D1sclaimer]

Thats pretty cool. Thats either an 02 or an 03 s2000. Which one?

r-comps?

Bridgestone RE-11s. I've been told it's far better to do your first handfull of track days on street tires, as you get a better feel for the limits of the car. And it's not nearly as much wear and tear on things like brakes and bushings.

I was going to make the same statement. I thought you were crazy enough to start on the big tires. But at least you have pretty much the best street tires out there.
