Quote:Uh, who cares? Really man, that's not the debate at all. We're talking about the goddamn cars here. Nobody in this thread is talking about what a tube frame dragster can run 10 times before it blows up.
Bottom line is that you can't compare one manufacturer 1/4 mile time to hundreds of 'enthusiast' S2000 times.
Fucking get real. Did you understand why there are no purpose built S2K drag cars or was it over your head.
My major point was that people who do run single digit honda dragsters (whether they be amatuer or big time pros, unibody or tube chassis) don't run anything out of the S2K. Top tier FWD guys DO run ecotec motors.
Mike brought up the idea that the S2K might run quicker 1/4 miles stock vs the Sky RL. Who cares what cars designed for turns run at the strip. Furthermore, who the fuck drag races stock cars?
You think modfied S2k's are going to pose a threat for similar budget Sky Redlines on Friday nights at the dragstrip? Hit me back on this thread in a year or so.

In fact the only interesting thing now is to see if the ecotec success was solely based on factory support in a largely uncontested class, or if RWD ecotec's will be able to step up to the VQ, 2JZ, 4G63, and whatever they call that mod 4.6 Ford's run.
