they are sn95, not foxes.

they weigh a bit, like about 1000lbs more, but they handle pretty well, IRS, 275's all the way around, and power from idle to redline...

Camaro and mustang don't corner well, but they sure can do quarter mile.

SVT would win, hand down.

The SVT's actually are better suited for twisties than the drag because of the IRS, compared to mustangs with a live axle. It be interesting to see how the SVT would match up with the S at Big Willow tho.

there is basically a CR vs a 03 cobra, a few seconds apart. 03 cobras do not have super bad ass tires from the factory though.

Hey I think the S2000 is still way ahead in the poll regarding the "best Japanese sports car ever"...remember? Ahead of the EVO by about 1200 votes. Strangely, nothing else even comes close...it's just those two cars.

And the damn EVO isn't even really a sports car.

ok so maybe this wont exactly matter... but. Yesterday out of sheer bordem on Forza 2 I got a GT mustang the new one. Did a motor swap and added everything I could to this car in the game. I stopped adding parts at 695 cause I had to be under 700hp. Then I took it around the Ring. I must say it was one of the worst cars I have ever "driven" on that game around that track. I did place 1st but only by 2 seconds ahead. So I think its the car not the driver. But hey just me.

it doesnt. i have a 69 camaro that has all the mods and weighs next to nothing, 700hp, etc, bla bla

it handles like shit. which makes no sense considering it has a "full race suspension"



yeah, i bet this handles like a truck.

you know they have had some issues with cars before. Like the Saleen S7 in Forza 1 was virtually uncontrolable. In Forza 2 it was WAY better... so they are workin on it all.

Attached are the results from an autocross this past Sunday. You can see how the S2000 did relative to the two Mustangs in the group. Also, how it did relative to 3 Lotus Drivers. Two of which were the same car.
