I have a clutch of friends who all happen to own similar (ish) machines in terms of performance to my S2k.

The question that has inevitably arisen recently is "What's fastest"? now were not talking about out and out straight line pace - more which car would on average be fastest whether you were at a track / down a country road / A road blast etc. Basically the fastest allrounder.....

The List of cars involved are listed below - and for my two pennies worth I have listed them as I honesty feel the cars should sit - trying desparately to avoid any S bias

However as you can imagine not everyone agrees with my conclusions - and I wondered what pepole on here thought....... My biggest argument is with the 350Z driver, who thinks he would kill the S round a track - however having spent a lot of time in his 350Z i can't beleive how cumbersome it feels in bends due to it being 300kg!! heavier than the S!

FASTEST

MZ3 Coupe
Z4 3.0i
Audi S3 (new)
S2000
350Z (276 BHP)
Porsche Boxster (NON S)
BMW 330Ci (E46)
RX8

SLOWEST

Z3M I reckon. is definitely the quickest not sure about the rest have you checked the top gear laptimes?

The 350z and the S are probably much of a muchness but my heart lies with the S.

Assuming the same driver:

S2000 and 350Z very evenly matched. However depending on the characteristics of the track, and whether it's the new 300+ bhp one, I'd expect the 350Z to eke out the win. A tighter track would see the S. Boxster is also fairly evenly matched. As is the Z4 and Rx-8.

The MZ3 Coupe should be quicker. S3 slower unless it's wet and then it would be quicker.

330Ci at the back

Visit www.track-challenge.com for some actual data on most of the cars in question......

On the Boxster front it depends if you are talking about the old 986 shape or new 987 version as the new one would probably be on a par with or slightly quicker than the S2k in your list.

[QUOTE]YOUNG men who speed do so because they have a small penis - or so the new RTA road safety campaign implies.

Ads from the $1.9 million campaign - which targets speeding among 17- to 25-year-olds - aired for the first time on TV last night. They show onlookers who see speeding male drivers wiggling their pinkie fingers.

The gesture represents a small penis in youth culture, but even an elderly woman employs it.

John Whelan, the RTA's director of business co-ordination, road safety and policy, said the campaign aimed to make speeding socially unacceptable.

"To me [the gesture] says 'speeding - no one thinks big of you'," he said. "It will cause people who are speeders to think twice about the image they are creating."

The ads would be controversial, he said, but traditional "shock horror advertising" that highlighted injury and death from speeding was no longer effective on "people exposed to computer games, modern media

I don't need a big c*ck, cause I've got a fast car.

What have the non-SC'ed people got to compensate for their tiny schlongs?

Nothing.
