Slightly off-topic but coming round a bend down a quiet country lane a few weeks ago I found myself accidentally racing a male red deer in my stock S before it veered off into the woods. I have to say it was kicking my ass, but then I was deciding whether to brake and let it do its own thing or accelerate past it.... Is there anyone else who has taken on nature's finest in a match of muscle vs metal? No, rodents don't count.

In America, people that live in the city do not get a chance to race deers, and those who live in areas that you can, only drive pickups.

I have a NA s2000 that should pull on cars with quite a bit more hp due to the fact my car has been lightened so much. I am not finished getting more NA power with even less weight.

The srt-4s usually win in a straight line. Same hp, but more whp since they're FWD and dont have to go through so much translation like the long driveshaft in a RWD vehicle. Stock srt-4's are about 220whp, with all that mentioned he might be about 240-250whp and about 230 tq, they also weigh about the same as the s2k. He'll probably take you by about 2-3 cars.
