ok guys i raced a honda s2k last night we raced three times the first was a dead stop and i pulled him by to cars the second race was a 20 roll and i pulled him like a bitch then the third race he was pretty close he actuall one by a car. i have a 2.7 pulley 60lb injectors and a street tune. is there something wrong with my car or is the s2k just that fast. im just lost

 

was the s2k stock cuz a s2k wants to race me thats stock and i have a stage 2 and wat yr the 08's are pretty fast.

 

what speed was the 3rd race from

 

like 40

 

and you started around 3500 rpm or so in 2nd?

 

ya well... i get beat by civic del sols. thts embarrassing...

 

If it's stock, something might be wrong. I have killed a few S2Ks that were stock and im only Stage 2...

 

wow man

 

well at 40 relativly speaking your pretty low in the rpm range in second compared to there close ratio 6 speed i'm sure at that speed they would have the advantage

 

I've only ran one s2k, don't know if he was stock or not. It was the middle of the night from an 80 punch, I pulled a car then after 120 he just pulled away into the night...........



edit: oh and I was just stage 2 only

 

When I was just stage 2 I raced one to 140 once (didn't realize we were going that fast) and he stayed with me the entire way until I left off...

It had single exhaust so I have no clue what he might have had.

 

I have raced two s2ks when i was runnin a 2.9 on a stage 2 tune and from a 40 it was really close until like 90 then i started walkin hard on em.. i think one of them had an intake and the other just had a drop in filter

 

Sounds like you may just be heat soaked by the third run.

 

you were probably heat soaked like a bitch after 2 other races. i would actually race most S2k's from a dig because they are PITA to launch (no torque does that) so if he messes up the launch its game ova

 

they only have 162lbs of torque lol
S2K stock 0-60 in 5.87 and 1/4 mile 14.39
cobalt ss/sc stock 0-60 6.1 and 1/4 mile 14.6

 

magazine racing is gay, but yea, if you cant launch it they are slow as hell from a dig

 

i love my torque

 

look for u guys im gonna see if i can get my best friend to race me tonight ......2002-ap1 s2000......its the 9k revlimiter ....he has an intake and test pipe.........ill show u how they do

 

get it on video

 

nothing is wrong, but he beat you by a car? from a 40 they are a little quick. they have close ratio 6 speed, they rev up faster

i raced an 07 si civic from a 40 and he jumped a car ahead of me and i reeled him in and passed him at 90 mph. s2k is prolly faster. its basically ur advantages agaisnt his. if u race him from a low speed or a dig, u win. higher speeds, pointless, not even a race =/

in my book, ur car is better, so nothing is wrong

 

yea i raced a 06 si from a 40 roll he kept up for awhile but i pulled on him, i'd say dig race for sure

 

i raced that same civic si at the track and i beat by more than 2 cars and my time was 9.3 and he said he had a 9.7


i ****** hate those liars! makes me wanna punch them in the face

 

lol the one i raced i bet him, told people i didn't, he went to the track ran a high 15 claimed he could do a high 13 low 14, i got a 13.902 before a retune and torque dampner

 

13.9? wow, what are ur mods?

 

gm stage 2, nates 2.9, ls4 t/b, custom intake, zzp header d/ pipe combo, 3" cat back.those are my performance mods. the guy that had it before me had it tuned by area for the 2.8 pulley and meth maybe so it could've been running better, after that area messed around and retuned my car which i think it pulls a little harder and i got a ingalls torque dampner so i think i can lower me 1/4 time by a tenth or so hopefully
