Won't eat it, and didn't win overall. The movie shows who won overall, not one single battle. It does show that the S2k did handle better, but "Great" is a darn good mark also, however I'll go with the video results, it's all on film. The Z ate the S2k overall.

the CR does not have audio or air conditioning, while the nismo still does. If the Nismo got rid of the ac/radio then the S2000 would have lost by a larger margin.

But then it wouldn't be a from-the-factory comparison which was the whole point.

Two different approaches to a sports car, and clearly both very evenly matched. Why do you think it's garbage?

First and foremost, even with its lighter weight, S2k is way under powered with absolutely no torque or what so ever. First hand experience with my co-worker's 05 S2k. Two, You have to rev the crap out of that 2.2 liter to reach its maximum power and torque, well, if it has any.... Not all engines are bulletproof from high revs. Sooner or later, something is going to give. Not saying that it will never happen with VQ's, but our power and torque is there so we don't have to rev the shiet out of the engine (stock for stock). Another annoying thing about some of the S2k drivers(mostly young kids), is that they think their car is god when they are modified. Pssh....please, give me a break.

Audio and AC are an option on the CR.

Umm no it won't. Only a autox the S2k will beat a NISMO, but no way possible for it to beat one on a road course.

s2000 is an amazing car. I would love to have it along with my Z. Yes, it feels underpowered, but its go-cart handling is sooo much fun.
