The c32 will rape the s2000 even if the s2000 is heavily modded....

What's your definition of heavily modded? Does a SC'ed S with header and exhaust counts as heavily modded?
There was a video floating on here of a S owner racing a SLK32, the S was SC'ed. They raced a few times from a roll on the highway, and it was pretty even. The SLK beat the S by like 1/2 car and the S beat the SLK by 1/2 car. The SLK32 is pretty even with the C32. A well driven SC'ed S should be able to keep up with a C32/SLK32, it certainly won't get raped.

actually anything done unless it has a supercharger it will get raped. Also in the video the only race the s2000 wins is the first where the s2000 clearly gets a big jump. The slk walks it the second time and slowly pulls it the third. The s2000 should know not to even attempt to race an slk32 or c32.

Well, I agree that a stock S don't stand a chance. But a SC'ed S will keep up with one pretty good.

face it.......even a supercharged s2000 can't beat an slk32. If the slk32 has a pulley and chip they will pull atleast 3 or more cars.

A turbo S will hurt the SLK32 or C32 in BOTH the twisties and acceleration. SLK32 and C32 don't handle nearly as well as an S and they could only dream to get an S's gear box. Turbo 2.0L vs supercharged 3.2L = fair enough?

.. when you can't beat them in speed you always gotta talk about the twisties.. Thats why i bought the Evo.. To handle you for the straight line, and to stomp you on the twisty
