Wow he came off like a dick. Glad he was man enough to apologize for it after the smack down was laid. Since I previously owned a Sedan, I can spot out the "sleeper status" a mile away. I know what's up!

Also strangely enough, I ran into a guy that used to have an "LNF". He asked what was done to it as i was switching the tune out at the car meet and I jokingly said "just hardpipes". He asked if it was a zzp tune and I told him it was actually a BYT tune before the whole sketch thing happened with the tuner. He replied with "ya im more of a James Rakes guy".
I had a feeling there would be a follow up of **** talking but it stopped there. I mention James had raised quite the hellstorm on css.net a while back lol. He asked who I raced and I said the s2k, he replied with I put down a lot of STi's easily when I had my LNF.
The STi guy that I mentioned with the FPred turbo heard him and this previous LNF owner continued to talk about how many STi's he brought out to pasture to lay down
Looked like the STi guy was looking for a race from him but he didnt have his LNF anymore.
Was this anybody on here? I cant remember what name he told me but I dont know if he was a frequent member on here

This guy sounds like a douche...but he righted himself. Audi, BMW and Mercedes drivers are wayyyyyy worse. Why do they automatically assume that because hey drive an A4 that they think they have fast cars? BMW guys with there 335Is are even worse! I pull buses on those guys.

I didn't read all of that but I can tell you right now that S2000 is hauling ass around the ring. As someone who has researched extensively, S2000's can also make copious amounts of power on the stock block. I'm talking 700+, reliably, if done right.
Would like to see someone try that in our cars. Nice to see the guy was chill about it. S2000 drivers are good people.

both videos are posted on facebook. bus lengths like I said in the comments when he was up against the tune.
Car lengths without the tune.
Pics towards the end of the runs. About the same distance races. Ended top of 4th gear both times these pictures were taken. Also gives a good idea to people on the fence about tuning a turbo cobalt what the difference is.

By watching the video you can see the honda is mostly stock, maybe intake cam headers, otherwise it's just a good driver on his home course on an amateur lap day with lots of noobs. Meh, nothing a stock tc with a hardcore bar wouldn't kill.

Right??? I saw the build list. Its mostly suspension and handling mods, like a said. A tuners dream. SO on the Nurburgring course which is a high speed course, Id say NOT insane fast. Just passing people on amateur hot lap night like you said.
