doesn't seem that angry to me. did you see his original post?
there wasn't any underlying tone, there wasn't any harshness to it.
now you make a post without underlying tones and without harshness, someone says, "yo, why you hatin?" wouldn't you be a little perturbed?

Sorry, I guess I just don't understand your point either lol. Please elaborate if you so choose.

I'm stock at the moment because of autocross, but my friend has an intake, coil overs, and slotted rotors with steel braided brake lines.

I was curious, so I looked them up on Drag Times. It looks like several stock S2000s have run 13.7, so really I should have asked you if he is a good driver lol. But then again I think someone hit that w/ MS3, so that will definatley be a good 1/4 race! From a roll you'd walk him prolly. Let us know how you make out dude.
