I think what he is actually referring to was the FIA's decision to ban rotarys for 1992. They wanted everyone using F1 spec 3.5L engines. The actual 1992 Mazda racecar was an old Jaguar XJR-14 with a Judd power plant.

Touge is a motorsport. So, I'm thinking the J's Racing S2000 is a race car.

Apparently, y'all do not know what Touge is, so add another word to your dictionary.

Touge (g, tš*ge? (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:Japanese)) is a Japnese word literally meaning "pass." It refers to a mountain pass or any of the narrow, winding roads that can be found in and around the mountains of Japan and other geographically similar areas.


i really was about to do that.. but i had to leave...lol everyone has that 1 race car that they love to see!

Touge is street racing plain and simple. I dont know too many people racing legitimate race cars on the streets. If I even cared I'd find a good FAIL gif but you're not worth the time. And touge is gayer than Bulldogs on a saturday night, mtn runs are fun but keep the racing off the mountains that I drive on.

That S2K is as much of a race car as the civic on the first page and the FC on the last page. Again, like in my original post, the only honda racecars I care about hit 220mph on the back straight at Indianapolis.

And just so I'm not putting in another useless post like yours, here's a pic of the great 959 rally porsche.

i.e. still a street car taken out and street raced around a mountain course. right?

Look man, we don't tug around but we do have experience with this sort of thing. Hence why 90% of my posts are in the comp forum.

If you want to post an s2000 that qualifies as a race car, even a time attack machine would be better. The simple fact is the car you posted is a simple street modded car. No race series would allow it to run professionally .

Here's a proper example. Super Takiyu S2ks from Mooncraft and Spoon

Any under the hood shots? Looks to be a big blower or turbo under there.

EDIT: Looking at the pic again tells me its a blower car, Procharger.

^^^ Cars in that street tire class are SICK!!! I cannot remember it off hand but they are 7-8 second cars. There is a pretty sweet black viper that runs in the class.

Good thing it's not an '02. BMW never had a 2002 art car. Oh, and someone got it right, btw.
