The S2000 *might* be outgunned in S2, but that car still needs
to be developed. I thought it was an AS+ (now S2) car from the
getgo and that's where it's being placed.
I think the Boxter S is definitely not on the low end of S2 - it might
even be the favorite in that class. The AS Boxter is proving to be
very quick and the S *should* be quicker. I'll bet the Z3 M
drivers are also looking forward to mixing it up with the Vettes.
