Well, stock for stock (depending on the driver), the Mazdaspeed3 can catch up to an S2K through the 1/4 mile and it traps a bit more, I believe; however, with your mods, you should take him from anywhere, including a dig or a roll.

well saying that a 370z kept up with a Viper is overrating it IMO. lol I don't think a s2k with 300whp can get anywhere near a viper, yet it can destroy a 370z or there's some conflicting info somewhere.
