Amazingly I Beat an S2000 in a CL Type S Automatic

I pulled up to a red light againt some dooshbag in a S2000 and he starts revving his shit, I put my AUTOMATIC CL type S into neutral and do like he did. Obviously this person was bad at manual because i burned him. He kept up until he switched to third then i blew by him? this guy obviously not showin enough for the S200 honda crowd.

I raced my friend 4 times in his sk2

2 wins
1 loss
1 tie

If he was a better driver he would have won at least 3 of the 4. The tie was from a 20 mph punch. His one win was pretty convincing as he walked me pretty hard.

He was probably afraid to redline second. That's what he gets for being a pooosy. Good kill.

I've raced a AP2 S2000 from just a roll in 2nd gear and I slightly pulled on him.

I was recently dead even with an s2k from 70 to 120 on the highway with my 01 CL-S. We just gave eachother thumbs up and went on our own ways.

yeah s2000's are actually pretty slow. i raced one, i have CL-P H/CAI, and the guy took off like 1/10th of a second after me plus he sucked at driving...i pulled everytime he had to shift and we both stopped once we entered 4th, not taking 3rd to redline. also he couldnt launch the thing either as we staretd from 0. so not claiming i can take one, but they are not fast or he shoulda came from behind, thats for sure!
