And you really haven't proven to me that the S is better than an Evo on a track. SCCA really isn't the end all bench mark measure sticks. But eh, i'm sure the Honduh can never lose right?
i've given you real life proof in refute of your statement that the EVO outhandles the S2000. it's not my fault you can't face reality and admit you're wrong. considering you've resorted to backpedaling and immature statements like "honduh", I think this thread is done. You can keep talking about your magazines, and us real drivers will continue to know the truth about the EVO vs the S2000.

evos a nice car.

s2k is a nice car.

Im willing to bet that the reason a stock evo handles better than a stock S2000 is those super sticky advan AO48 tires. My friend has a Evo RS and after 8 k had to replace those tires, so he cheaped it up and got a different tire. I think they were falken azenis. Anyways the handling was nowhere near as good as it was.
Yes, those ADVANs are super duper sticky...I can't believe the traction on that car with those tires.

Who cares which is faster in any kind of competition? Are y'all paid based on cone-dodging or some other kind of competition results? Or is this just an ego-stroking exercise?

A faster, higher performing car doesn't always mean a higher fun-to-drive factor. All I know is that the S2000 is very fun to drive, and regardless of what else can/can't beat it, I love it.

Exactly why I like my S2000 over my EVO.
