How to build the ultimate Honda S2000? When it comes to SuperK, the recipe is simple: Start with a Honda S2000, swap in a K-series engine, add on a turbocharger and drop in a dual-clutch gearbox sourced from a BMW.

[SuperK: The quest to make the fastest Honda S2000]

The result? In addition to 2 podium finishes in the Tire Rack One Lap of America presented by Grassroots Motorsports, SuperK is also the 2020 UMI King of the Mountain champion, 2020 Gridlife Track Battle Street Mod class champion and “the fastest street tire driven S2000 at every track it has visited in the last 4 years.”

Sure, those results make a convincing argument that the recipe works for making the ultimate S2000, but does the recipe also work for making the ultimate track car?

We’ll find out October 26-27 when SuperK takes to the track at Kentucky’s NCM Motorsport Park for the 2024 Tire Rack Ultimate Track Car Challenge presented by Grassroots Motorsports, our annual search for the fastest machine on four wheels, which takes place alongside the Tire Rack SCCA Time Trials Nationals Powered by Hagerty.

Rules for the UTCC are simple: Both car and driver must pass a safety inspection. That’s all.

Outside of that, build your track car however you see fit: Twin turbos, custom-built chassis, massive wings, sequential gearboxes–it’s all welcome at the UTCC.
