Would anybody be up for an EVO vs. S2000 Competition?

I test drove it but coming from a 350Z was extreamly unhappy with it along with the fact I'm 6'2" and their is no leg room ... well N E way my point is that when I told my girlfriend, sister, sisters friends, and my girlfriend's friends that I was looking at a S2000 they where all like 
only one of them said they liked the S2000 better since its was convertable (a chick comment for sure)... NO BULLS HIT they told me they liked the Evo better. Now most you are going to call BS on this but its 100% true I would give you their phone #s so you could call them but I dont think they would be to happy about that.

I think the Evo is a better looking car. I was on the route to import one before they came here. Evo 6.5 Tommy car...it turned into a huge headache. I really like the looks of the car. It's in your face, ugly, shopping cart wing, just so many things wrong with it...it's just right.

Thats exactly right, and you use that plight of an excuse constantly. I think everyone here knows its getting old. And quite frankly I can care less because if you lose you lose. I dont care why it happened. But what I do care about is that I won and I get payed. Hows that for facts?
As a matter of fact, how long have you been doing this?
I can probably find a time I was at the track and ran a faster time than you?

So again, would that make my car faster? Me faster? Or both?

Obviously from the lack of your knowledge in the car world alot longer than you have.
I highly doubt it. I guess I would have to ask you what were you in? I highly modded s2k or a motorcycle? hahahhaa

Look me up at the track, see if you can bring the times of your internet prowess....and here is a mod or two on the S2000. 410WHP, Penske Triple Adjustable Suspension, Mugen sway bars, brembo full floaters w/ momobloc Indy calipers.
Silver S2000 with PMUM on the plate.

410 hp and what was the torque again? i like the s2k but the evo is faster stock and so much cheaper to mod
but the motor in the s2k is amazing but it doesnt have AWD and is a bit small it looks really nice especially with the hard top
the e36 m3 is in my opinion a nicer and better car than the s2k and right about the same speed and same price to mod but have a better resale and better name and it has VANOS (bmw version of vtec) and it has a **** load more torque

1:31xx and the S2000 is faster.

Prefereably Willow Springs, since there is only ONE config. I'll pick a car and time to compare it to. Me? Excuse? Uhhhh...not yet.
Your right maybe my reading skills arent up to par with yours but I read your post like a gazillion billion times and it doesnt make sense to me especially the last portion.

I'm only going to post this once. I'm 38 and I've worked for quite a few professional race teams for many years. I've been at Willow Springs more times then I can remember (in a car, on a bike, and crew chiefing a race team). I've driven cars that go 1:20 on the big track (handling that is hard to comprehend unless you are in the car). Basically, I been there and done that.
Honestly, I can say bdiddy is just trying to start crap and needs his account locked, because he is not contribution anything meaningful to the forum.

Ok and I brought up my car which is also highly modded. Wanna try me? And yes like I said give me your phone number and lets schedule a race meet. Me vs. you and your 412hp s2k and my plastic saturn bucket car. hahahaha
So once you lose to my saturn are you going to make the excuse that it was the driver? Meaning you are a horrible driver? Or are you actually going to be real with yourself for once in your life?
I wonder what the s2k guys will think of your s2k losing to a saturn hahahhaa. O but dont worry you wont be the only one that has losed to it. People just dont knwo these days what weight/hp does anymore.
