After driving Stephen's Corvette (thanks again!), I don't understand how an S2000 has any chance.  The Corvette has a huge amount of lateral grip and huge torque compared to my car.  Other than a bit of transitional quickness, it didn't feel like much of a contest.

How was that Macan so fast relative to some people in the pack?  Holy Balls.

Great shots.  I'm interested in seeing if anyone got a few running shots of my car.  Are the official photo's going to be posted?

Probably going in a different direction (NC or ND Miata).  Corvettes are still out of our philisophical comfort zone :)

Can I buy some parts off the S2000 if you sell it?  Namely the front sway bar...

No problem (I still have the OEM bar), but it may be a while yet.

Nice to see the car is competitive... just needing the owner to up his game.
Thanks for the insight on run comparisons Ryan.
