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

What do the pictures prove. We can post pictures of AMS, Buschur Racing, and a couple show Evo's all day long, but the general populous has cars that are not nearly as modified. Wow, so there are a couple of outrageously nice S2k. Stock for stock and even in a modified event the Evo will when without breaking a sweat.

haha, no offense taken. Forums are here for people to share ideas and vent etc. I am just disgusted with all this rivalry bs. Personally I am not into drag racing but more into track driving. I am trying to learn how to become a better driver overall. My friend hosts private track days at least once a month. You should come join us sometime. Last month we had a bunch of guys from evolutionm.net and socalevo roll up with us. There was even a girl that whopped a lot of the guys in her yellow evo. I always see the same cars: mostly evos/stis/s2000s/and M3s there.

I especially like your EVO same year and color as mine. Did you see the time in my sig? E-mail me if you have any questions about mods to get or what not. I am destined for 11's next trip to the Drag strip, on stock 9.8 Hot sided Turbo.

man that home page article has very little objectivity.

My fortune had me in an Evo back in March 2003. I thought about owning a S2000 but the Evolution VIII is a much better car.

The only place the S2000 has a chance is Autocross. Oh boy! I'll give that S2000 owner a call the next time I want to do 10-20 turns within an acre.

Want real racing? Try a real organization like SCCA... and oh by the way here are the results of last years runoffs showing the S2000 clearly beaten by Evos and STIs:
http://www.scca.com/Event/Result.asp?Ref2=216

Better looking? That's waay to subjective... hell I've actually met a person that really liked the way the Aztek looked! The S2000 is a sharp looking car, just as an Evo is.

I never needed buy a car to get laid... and besides, you can't get laid in a S2000... the Evo has more room... so you boners have to settle for the ******* only

I agree with this guy saying that article in no way belongs on the front page of that forum-based web site.

But I guess the site owner needed the ego boost. We feed it merely by reacting to it, but in the process the guy looks like a tool.

Since you have read this thread: http://www.s2ki.com/forums/index.php...&#entry7209630


This was my initial post until all of you guys started talking **** on your little website::

"My personal opinion:

That is a poorly written article without any facts and with only just one side of the story. After reading it I am left wondering why this article was ever written? I think it should be removed"

Whatever. Like that gives the right to follow up with all your BS and insults. Please go away from our "little" website.

BTW that gunmetal S2K with gold rims is nasty looking. As in tacky.
