Rent a yellow S2000 via Turo to get the hell out of town.
My manual transmission was rebuilt this week but the housing was broken in transport, so I channeled my rage into finding something fun to drive on Turo.
Curiously there’s a Maserati for a remarkably affordable price, but from a verrrrry sketchy area (not far from where I live, so I can attest to its sketchiness). I think I’ll stay away.

Let me know what it’s like to clutch dump from the red line.

Hell yeah, S2000's are a ton of fun to drive enjoy it!
Interesting to note, it’s on temp tags and already on Turo lol.

Yeah, that struck me as interesting too. Wonder how many people buy a car just to put it o n Turo.

S2000 is one car I would not rent out on Turo. I grimaced when I let some good friends drive mine and they were rough with the clutch.

I would never rent out any car of mine, but an S2000 would definitely be near the top of the list of nevers.

I’m definitely headed south tomorrow , but not sure where. I usually stick no more than an hour or two away from Indy because while I love driving my J eep, it’s not the best fast highway vehicle. Not sure what I’ll do with the Honda.

Well just ping me if you do get anywhere near Columbus, I know a good bit of back road that takes 30 minutes to do. Or more if you feel like it going elsewhere.
Ooh and we can do a mini oppo meet as well.

I’m always interested in back roads in that area, as you can see from my POI database, although more the HNF than Columbus itself.
Want to meet at 1 tomorrow? Drop me an email: john@ geekhavoc.com.

Sure! I’ll change the oil in the Vette before that and be ready :)
I’ll mail you tonight regarding where we can meetup.

That’s a shame. I just picked a random date to search here and found several German cars, a Mustang, a couple of Teslas, Camaro, Slingshot, etc.
