Hey SVT, I got no argument there.

The S2k's tranny is its weak point IMHO... they have delicate internals and had to deal with weight issues in order to achieve it's 50/50 weight distribution with a light tranny. Coupled with the rather unusual characteristic with the engine's power - torqueband, it's quite easy to shave metal off the gears with a lot of "from dead stop" launches. I guess it was a trade off to achieve what it has.
