The ND is probably going to dunk all over C Street. It might be faster than S2000s around an autocross course depending on the layout and how fast/open it is; however, an S2000 should be marginally quicker than an ND on track. It runs out of go around 100mph or so since it's all about the mid range power and torque.

Muffinpox posted:The twins are designed to be fun to drive and handle well. They're really quick with good tires and respond to modification well because of that, but S2000s are just outright faster cars. However, if you dare to bring up the fact that stock for stock the 350Z is faster than the S2000 around a race track (not autox), you'll get so much shade thrown at you. It's pretty funny to see in action. For the record, I like S2000s and have driven both AP1s and AP2s. They're twitchy and unforgiving, but ridiculously fast. (I don't like the shifter though, too vague... Not truck like in the Miata 5 speed)

I didn't feel any positive engagement when putting it in gear, just an extra two seconds of questioning if it went into the right gate. If you've ever typed on Cherry MX Blues or an old IBM Model M keyboard, you'll know the satisfying clunk at the press of engagement.
