Also tip on lines. Try and see through each corner to the next corner. What will make you faster isn’t about getting to each corner as fast as you can. But about maintaining highest optimal speed , exit trajectory, and momentum to next. Overall excellent first day man! You picked up good and quick

Well done Dustin! As an S2K owner, I truly enjoyed your video in the Track! Thanks! I’ve 2 advices for you: 1) get a stand-alone ECU (for your model, I think they #AEM V2 ) and decrease the VTEC engagement point to circa 4000. You have it waaaay to high! 2) get a proper K&W coilovers, and it will handle even better at the track! Congrats amigo, well done!

Have Jackie Ding teach you how to get the most out of the S2K. He's one of the fastest drivers in Gridlife and Global Time Attack.

[@wiseeyemedia6289]

i could listen to an s2000 rev out its gears for ever and ever. Almost could fall asleep listening to it go around the track

[@JordanPayneLV]

Dustin, great job! I was really impressed to see how smooth you were with your steering inputs, if you remember my last comment you’ll know that I used to be a racing instructor and something that I think could help you for the future is keeping your eyes looking further down the race track. You have to remember that even though there are cars in front of you, you need to maintain the ideal line. This track is a bit difficult because there are such long corners, it is hard to spot the apex and guide the nose toward them. I was also impressed to see how well you managed driving a manual transmission car, that adds a whole additional layer of complexity to the experience. Loving this content keep it up! 😎👌🏻

[@metalheadjoey666]

Great control with the s2000.

[@theracersline2953]

Can't wait until you get even more hooked and realize grip driving is fun as hell. So many KZbinr's go the drift route, but grip driving takes lots of seat time and training too, and doesn't beat up the car quite so bad.

[@suprvrmedia6235]

From Simracing and videos, I learned this things Front toe in- Makes the car more quick in reactions, more agile. Less turn of the wheel when you turn. Front toe out- If the car is really nervous, put toe out. It will be less agile, but more tame. More easy to catch a drift. Rear toe in- if you have oversteer, put toe in in the back. Rear toe out- never used in rwd cars, makes the car oversteer. Front sway bar stiffness- makes the car stiffer in the front, making the car have more understeer and less oversteer. More precise, but less predictable. Used also for bumps, less spring stiffness but more sway stiffness And the springs and all that stuff is more dificult, but I adjust it more for bumps and stuff. Not trying to be a pro in this stuff, but, from learning and trying in simulación, this is what I can say. Im sure that Ken and this people know s lot more, but whatever, my piece of advice here hahaha Reminder, toe and that stuff will make tires run out faster and gain temps.

[@BL-zs3pc]

S2000 just as a beat up track car with so many others in your fleet - amazing!

[@aus10e36]

I like the nickname Rusty Dusty for you, what do you think?! The s2k is coming along nicely. Honestly - I plan on owning one in the future. It is great to learn about the pros and cons.

[@clutch0514]

[@StrangerOfficial]

Midori Wrx hahahah fuuuu

[@yamaha8599]

You should be super proud of your self for your first time on a road course. You’re very consistent of either being full on gas or full on brake never coasting. Only pointers I could say would be to use all the track, YOU PAID FOR IT!! Clip your apexes closer and get on throttle as soon as you clip the apex. If you clip them as close as possible it will allow you to get on throttle earlier for corner exit. I was very impressed at how aggressive but under control you were on corner entry. You’ve got a great foundation. You’re the only legit KZbinr making a well documented track car build, and actually going out and using the car for that purpose. Excited to follow along the cars progress and your driving progress. Subbed.

[@snewstead1388]

OUTSTANDING! Tracking should be on everyone’s bucket list. It is the most fun thing to do ever. Dustin get some down force on that car. Wing on the rear and front lip. Down force will make a huge difference, especially with that rear end sliding out. Great work.

[@dancarlos1216]

Sean Newstead Downforce isn’t going to fix the driver, he just needs more seat time.

[@MVarelDE]

Keep the s2k as it is while improving your driving before upgrading the car to the next level

[@ianrenova5229]

I always gave you crap about not tracking cars but I am happy you finally made it to the track and now it kinda feels like I can achieve my dream of getting a bike on track

[@louisGauto]

same here I even left a comment giving hats off to him.

[@originalmusic401]

Happy to see this beast on the track good stuff man! I can see this s2k evolve into a time attack beast

[@diegomaraboli6447]

Impressive video, the car looks great on track. The only thing is that the camera in the helmet was a little crooked and now my neck hurts hahaha. But then I had no problems with the camera in the car. More videos like this, please keep pushing and improving!💪🏼🔥

I appreciate that you enjoy the full scope of the automotive world. You build cars that look good and have function, drive them, and seek to improve card mod and driver mod.

Dude the s2k glides well down the track, I can't imagine how it's going to do it with all the finished mods

[@accuratein04]

My brother used to have a rad spoon s2000 with the science of speed supercharger. He let me drive it for a weekend and it was unforgettable. I can't imagine the joy of driving it on a track.

[@swagapinooo]

Man, I love these s2k content I swear! 🔥

[@francisserrano1284]

I felt the smoothness of your S2k when you drove it on the track.🙌

[@louisGauto]

Well Dustin my hat is off to you, you've made it to the track. I am a huge advocate for people going to the track its fun and your not on public roads endangering others. I have some time attack content on my channel as well as my WRX build.

[@jethrox827]

Patience in the corners, give a little away on entry to gain a bit on exit. It's about getting used to the lines and apexes before outright speed.

[@samjackson1818]

The s2k is looking really clean I really love the wheel colour you've gone for. I can't wait for when they day you boost the s2k, they can handle a good amount of hp on a stock block.

[@DahakaCL]

I'm so happy to see you on the track finally. I followed Tj Hunt for around 2 years and got bored of not seeing him at the track. Keep doing trackdays, you will love it everytime more and more.

[@toddxhiggins]

Toe in in the rear is want you want to combat the oversteer. S2000 toes out heavily on compression so more toe in the better. Look at getting an aftermarket toe arm/bumpsteer kit. You can reduce the amount of toe In required saving the tyres a bit and maintain the stability

[@jpetro]

So stoked on this build! Can't wait for my S2k build to be track ready! 🤘

[@aimanroslan6082]

After watching you track that s2k.i feel like it can be more mechanical feeling.and i love it.

Finally a Track day! hell yeah, I have raced on Chuckwalla before, SCCA and NASA. Awesome track

[@autopassion27]

It's cool to view the evolution of your track S2K! A good instructor to teach step by step the basics, and share with the other passenger is so nice :-D Iit's an experience I want to do with my car!

[@CalvINMyPants]

Fun fact: Matt does often have S2000's for sale on his Instagram in which how I found out about my 2008 AP2. Flew down from SF to Long Beach and the car was amazing.

[@tonyton1495]

Indeed he does has alot of s2k for sale. But I know he has a red s2k as his track car

[@ShredGarage]

Take this car to the track as-is for like 4-5+ more times before making any changes. A big problem people have is changing too much every time they go out and almost have to re-learn the car every time. You need to know your limits (which honesty takes longer than 4-5 times..) and the vehicles limits before adding and changing stuff.

[@PhreshNBeat]

Wow nice first time runs Dustin , can't wait to see more track vids and of the s2000!!

[@jaygiatien]

Your in good company with Matt instructing you. Some really good saves you had there! it looked like a blast.

[@jbomb317]

[@tylerlieberman3307]

Lol did like one drift event and was basically just spinning out on a skid pad. First corner in the S2K at a reasonable pace and instantly spins. These youtubers are something else.

[@sar1352]

Hitting every apex, exiting each corner with as much momentum as possible while using the cars maximum potential is what makes track meets and time attack so fun.

[@dustiinw]

Agreed!!

Great video man! Dont matter about the time its all about the fun and experience

[@xthelord1668]

you definitely need some soft level of aero in rear and front,thats why car spun off but solid limits 100mph without aero that is decent though as you gradually move into tracking more,you will feel that you really need to lighten the car or supercharge it and put some decent aero on it

[@nicmonson6466]

Small tip. You don’t want to torque your wheels when they are hot. Torque to the full specs when cold at the beginning of the day and after it has cooled down for 45-1hour, if you want to check the torque use a torque wrench and set it to 75-80% of the spec.

S2k is a way better track car especially for a beginner. AWD just has more parts that will break and create bad habits for a novice driver.

[@matthewmohri9990]

Hey Dustin, Rotrex makes a powerful Supercharger for The S2K. Yeah it's a bit unique but it is one of the more powerful types of Superchargers. Dustin is this going to be mainly a suspension based care or will there be N/A or F/I power adders involved? The F20 series is pretty maxed from the factory so N/A is expensive to see a lot of results that are worth the cost. If you go F/I Rotrex is unique and a S/C that will stand out from the rest or if you're going to go Turbo a T4 or a T67 with anti-lag might work well but then again that might affect the reliability of the engine in long track sessions. I if you stay N/A Cams, head work(if needed), and Hondata Kpro would be the best bang for the buck.

[@kasper_429]

He's just starting, and learning the basics. The last thing the car needs right now is more power lol. Suspension, aero, and seat time. More power will come when he can handle it. :)
