Got WALKED by an S2000.... No bueno

About an hour ago, i seafoamed my Cooper S with my friends and also met a pretty cool guy with a Honda S2000. Im talking to the guy and he seems pretty cool and we decided to run on an empty back road from a DIG, which apparently was a big mistake. I revved up to 2500 rpm and dropped the clutch and all i did was spiiiiiiiiin all the way to third ... By the time i got traction, he aws already two lengths ahead of me and i was like FFFFUUUUU.. Geez ive walked 240's 97 Eclipses, and even a mustang GT.. I guess what goes around comes around...

If you promise to do the same thing again, I'll do a first time race with my JustaCooper!

It is when u start a race from a stop, as opposed to a roll
