Short and sweet;

S2000 vs 05/06 RSX type-S stock - 3 wins.
1) Pulled him 3 times, all rolls from 70-130.

S2000 vs 01 Solara with I/E - 2 wins.
1) 15mph roll = ... murdered him but he's a friend of mine and we wanted to run for fun.
2) Dig = I don't know how to launch for shit, so he pulled and then I reeled him in, pulled a car length and shut down.

S2000 vs 04-06 TL 6MT unknown mods w/passenger - 1 win.
1) 25 roll = We stayed even for a couple seconds then I started pulling and I shut down about two cars ahead of him by the beginning of 3rd gear.

S2000 vs 06 WRX with I/E - 3 wins. 4 losses.
1) We went from varying rolls; 50, 55, 60, 75. Sometimes I would stay right next to him and inch on him a little bit if I could time my shift right. But for the majority of the runs, we'd honk and stay even till we hit triple digits where he would pull, hard.
* He was having issues engaging 4th gear, so I can attribute my wins mainly to that.

S2000 vs 07/08 TL-S 5AT stock - 1 loss.
1) 10mph roll - Shit.. We were at a light and we were kind of eying each others cars and I rolled down my window and asked if he'd like to run, and he agreed to with a big smile. So we decided on a low roll and I honked 3 times. Immediately, the TL-S started pulling away and it just kept gaining. I was in shock! But yeah, he probably pulled 2.5-3 cars before we shut down at the beginning of my 3rd gear. Amazing.. surprised the shit out of me. haha

Yeah.. lol, there's more but I'm too lazy to try and remember the rest of them right now. Sorry guys. . Anyways, enjoy!

*BTW, I used to be Type-DM 2004 TL.

 

IDK how a stock TL-S 5AT pulled three cars on you in roughly the same distance the base 6MT lost two car lengths to you. Passenger shouldn't have made that much difference.

 

most likely bad shifting for the 6mt 04-06 TL.

however TL-S 5at is very quick too im glad to hear that it beat an s2k

 

 

Probably that, and also I bet he started in 2nd at 25 mph, when he should have dropped to first.

 

I went from a 6mt to an ap2. Id say the TL is a stronger car when driven properly. If you had an ap2 the gearing would help a lot up top. Nice runs.

I raced an ap2 on the freeway the other day. I jbew id beat him but he was taunting me. I was from like 60mph. He downshifted n I started in 4 at like 3800rpm by the end of fourtg I had hin by like 1 1/2 cars. I love my tuned 335i

 

i highly doubt you pulled on a 6MT TL.

i put 3 cars on s2k's from any speed and i dont even make as much power as a stock 6mt TL 3G

 

strongly agree TL-S 5AT is quick.....quicker than my 2G-S with intake and exhaust a lot.....especially the torque,so much diff

 

Was thinking the same thing.

 

Dgaf. I've pulled a lot of cars on the street in my old TL that I should have been destroyed by. .

I'd be more than willing to meet up with a stock 6MT TL and a 5AT TL-S in the San Diego area to settle this.

I'm not saying the S2K's the fastest thing ever, I'm just saying that at that moment, I bested the other car. Take it how you will. Anything can happen on the streets.

 

on a perfect day and 2 amazing drivers, yes I would agree 100%...but thats the beauty of street racing, you never know what you get too many factors to tell someone one you highly doubt they pulled on another car like that.....all it take is one huge mishift fuck up and there it is your done!!!

but I get what your saying though!

well said, the street is a tricky place to race because alot of factors go into consideration, but anyway nice kills/losses.... I was a bit surprised also on the TL-S 5at loss you had, maybe he wasn't stock! But either way good to know

since you this is kill/losses thread let me post a few not going into details or anything just some food for thought for people wondering if their car would fair okay or not with another certain car:

07' TL-S(5at)not stock! but close enough vs. 06' G35 (auto) chipped,exhaust. intake, and big deep 19's = 2 wins pulled both times from 50mph roll on highway with extreme ease

TL-S vs. G35 unknown year exhaust, intake and chrome wheels = 1 win was not worth another run as it was that much of a gap first race!

TL-S stock at the time vs. SRT-4 (mods unknown) = 1 win from 40mph roll, had him by 1 car lenght until we shut it down at 120mph, stayed fairly close, from a dig I believe he would of had me

TL-S vs. 05' 330i (coupe) vs. 04-05ish Benz S430 =3 wins double kills....funny seeing their faces, looks like they havent come across many TL-S run was from 55-60mph till 130ish!

TL-S vs. 2011 Mustang 5.0 = 1 loss...those things are fuking fast.... rolled from 50mph to about 110mph...from 50mph till about 90ish kept close but after that it was like I was standing still...he was kool though gave me thumbs up and was caught a bit off guard when we first took off as I pulled a bit and then he come to his senses and it was game over lol!!

TL-S vs. civic bubble hatch(b16swap) = 1 win, from a dig till about 80mph.....he had me on the launch up until about 4oish and then it was a wrap blew by him!!

have few more but those are the confirmed races that I could say both cars were fully racing!!! enjoy and on the street anything can happen remember this!!!

 

cool story bro.

 

I'd have to say that the type-s pulled on me cause we were starting down low (10mph), his torque advantage definitely came into play. Maybe it would've been different from a 50 roll. Guess I'll find out next time.

 

We'll have to do a run one of these days! I've never run an S2000.

 

I'd expect you to pull me even better than the type-s did! You're lighter, 6MT, and you have supporting mods.

But yeah, I'm down.

 

have fun

 

if you decide to run, have it on film if possible

 

Definitely.

 

make sure you have the camera. i want to see the winning car

 

Would you be down to run this Sunday?

 

lol chill out mang. We'll try and get a video for you guys of course.

You seem so excited to see the S2K get beat. u mad??

LOL

Sunday? Hmm. Probably not cause I have work and then a bbq to attend. Tomorrow I'll be back in SD if you're down? Or Saturday before 12pm?

 

Over an S2K? I'm sure he's not... Though I love the look of those little cars... I'm sure they have more then enough room... nice race list by the way

 

Phee, you know your car makes more power than a 3G TL 6MT lol. You have boltons. Your car is quick for sure.

I agree the TL 6MT, especially if it was modded, should've pulled away from you with the right driver. But it's street racing and happens. I'm surprised the TL-s 5AT pulled on you by 2 cars as well.

I ran an S2K once with all my mods (minus 3in exhaust and custom Jpipe) and pulled about 3 cars to 100 from a dig. It was pretty close through 1st & 2nd (he was on my rear QP). I then started pulling pretty strong above 75mph.

 

Owning both, The S will pull my 2nd gen TLS. Auto FTL.
But that is like throwing a few curves in and asking the TL to keep up.
The S has no real TQ and is a corner carver, not a drag car. Hell a few good launches on an S can grenade the diff.

 

Pmed.

 

I'm just messing with him. Thanks boss man.

Here's the thing though; I never said the TL was modded. I wrote unknown mods.. lol. He very well could've been stock.

Sonnick, you're fast dude. I don't know how you only got 3 cars on him.

I never launch the S2K hard... Mainly cause I don't know how to launch it all.
hahaha

 

Ah true, I thought "unknown mods" would mean you knew it was modded, but were unsure of what was done.

Eh, I'm quick but the S2Ks are no slouches. Stock they are good for 100-101mph traps pretty commonly. I was perfectly fine with pulling 3 cars on him, that's a pretty big gap. Especially since it weighs a good 400lbs less with equal power (not torque ) I was full bolt on at the time.

 

umm...i was on an s2k's ass in the tail of the dragon :o ... but i agree, the s2k is a corner carver

 

also, be careful launching your s hard from a dig with their weak diffs. that was the one thing that scared me about owning one.

 

100-101 traps stock? Hmm. Definitely a lot faster than my old 5AT. haha.

It's a little wild though. One thing I've noticed about this car is that you don't know your fucked, until it's actually happening. It gives you a false sense of confidence and then bites you for it.

Yeah, I've heard about that. Thanks man. . I was thinking about sending mine in to comptech to get re-built.

Either way, I still don't know how to launch my S.

 

You need to come to N Arkansas for the Boston Mountains Tour (BMT) with the S2K group. If you were hanging and the S driver was pushing, that is one hell of a feat.

The BMT would be right up your alley, 200+ miles of twisties.

 

A couple runs here and there in the past couple of weeks.

S2000 (stock) vs E92 M3 (stock)80-120 roll - Loss by 3 car lengths.
*I don't think he was really trying cause I would pull initially and he would reel me in and put some serious distance between us before I seemed to "magically" start catching up.

S2000 (stock) vs '03 Mustang GT (I/E +) 20-55mph roll - Win by 1.5 car lengths before we shut down.

'01 S2000 (stock) vs '03 S2000 (I/E) (5) ~20-75 rolls - My car won by a bumper to a 1/2 car length each time. Even when we switched drivers, my (stock) AP1 would still pull on his. Don't know why.

'01 S2000 (stock) vs '07 S2000 (stock). highway rolls starting from 40-60mph and ending around 110 each time. We stayed almost dead even on each run, with my car barely poking it's bumper out ahead of his for 4 out of 5 runs.

I'm pretty sure I'm forgetting a few run-ins here and there. I'll just keep posting as they happen.

 

nice kills

 

Modded S2000 probably had engine problems/bolt-ons were causing power loss. The '03 AP1 makes 8 whp more than the '01's, so that'd be my explanation.

 

i miss my s2k stuck with a 96 honda inspire until i go back to the states
