For the final event of the S2K Takeover track season we ended it with a 2 day event at Watkins Glen. 2025 coincides with the 25th anniversary of the S2000 and we had a terrific turnout of 40+ S2000s. We also got blessed with incredible weather, sunny, dry and in the low 80s. Everything you could ask for, we got.

During lunch for the first day, we had had a parade lap so we could capture some epic photos that will be etched in our memories forever.

I set my PB on the first session of day 1 but in my biggest bonehead move of the season, I didn't replace my tires thinking I could get away with a full season of track on a set of RE71RS except I forgot I actually changed out these tires late 2024 so I had more track days than I remembered. The result was a pretty quick drop off in grip after that so I just kept losing more and more time as I had to back off for safety.

Overall though it was incredibly fun and I'm glad that's how the season ended and I'm looking forward to some really nice changes next season :D
