That's funny you should mention that. A friend of mine has an early S2K and when I got my Boxster he immediately wanted to run them. I'm not a big fan of racing people as I'd feel like an idiot if something were to happen. That in mind and both of us agreed we needed a track to do this on. He arranged it all and we ran 3 times. Every time, I took him off the line and up until about mid 3rd then he would get me every time on top end. Kind of pissed me off but, at the same time I have a new found respect for a stock Honda that actually has power.

I still like my car more than his though.
