Talking World's fastest S2000 going to e-town

The world's fastest S2000 is making it's debut in Englishtown in October:

This S2000 is simply incredible and is setting world records practically every time it hits the 1320. For those in the area you should check out this car in person as it represents the import car community and lays the smackdown on the competition!

Really? I would hope that the majority of us import car enthusiasts would be impressed. The S2000 has raised the bar. I can guarantee you there isn't an Evo XIII or IX at this point that could beat it.

hmmm,look at the major difference here,when it comes to drag racing+big power. RWD>AWD

if those evos were tubbed out RWD cars,the evo would win

Raised the bar in what way? It's a tubbed out, rwd, auto car. It's not like it's the first import ever to go 7's.

an evo may not hit 7's yet but i do believe 2g eclipses have which is an even older platform, still utilizes 4g63, and i am not sure if they use awd or rwd on the faster ones, i would imagine rwd. the bar was set high by mitsubishi a long time ago.

Definitely not the first import car to run 7s; by no means am I stating that. What I am saying is that the big name Evo XIIIs and IXs from shops like Buschur, AMS, TurboTrix, CFT, etc have yet to run 7s. All of these Evos are HEAVILY modded...just like this S2000. Some of these Evos have been tubbed out as well, are completely gutted, have something along the lines of a dog box or sequential air shifter, and the list goes on and on.

Aside from the S2000 being RWD and the EVO being AWD, this is certainly an apples to apples comparison.

You are certainly correct. I am referencing an EVO VIII or IX though.

I haven't seen a complete mod list yet, but know that they are using a Ford 8.8.

This S2000 here looks like it will be the next to post some quick times:
