Well this is my first post here, but just to let you know, I own a 99 Cobra and my Wife owns a 2001 S2000, and the S2000 is really a fun car to drive and I think it would be a drivers race with a GT, she usually plays catch-up to me but dont underestimate that car. It really doesnt take that long for the car to get up into its high revs, I mean shifting into 5th gear usually has you at about 4500rpms. Hopefully with you owning a Cobra you should leave the S on a straight, just dont mess with them on the twisties
