Good stuff. Too bad he didn't have more power in the straights. It looked like he could handle the S2K in the corners.

yeah, a little weird - stock for stock the s2k tends to be a bit quicker, so a turbocharged S2K vs NA Rx-8 is a no brainer..

a turbo s2k vs a stock rx8 with suspension mods? Talk about a huge advantage for the s2k

Powered oversteer would be a little scary unless you are the drift king - LOL

no second gear - sounds like the s2000 drivetrain is still their limiting factor

I think the main thing in the vid is that the rx-8 is a few suspension mods away from handling like an S2k.
