Default Srt-4 Vs S2k

Hey guys, I just need some help. There is this kid that keeps coming up with [IMO] bogus numbers.

"the srt's slalom time is actually 3 mph faster then the quickest SUPERCHARGED S2K ever tested."

Well, I know that the last part isnt true, but could you find some information that is pausible. I attempted and couldnt really come up with anything.

Yes, this seems a bit juvenile but.. man forget it.. im still young, i'm gonna talk like I usually do when i'm pissed.. This bitch ass thinks hes hot shit in his pos srt4 compared to an s2k. I'm not saying the s2k is the best car out there, but shit.. a lot better than a modded neon.

no way in hell. the srt is the only production car made with zero camber. not that helpful for anything but but going straight.

the SRT4s are not bad handlers, but they are not great, either.

the S is great.

The S is also a little faster.

When comparing slaloms, they must be the same course. different mags use different courses.

So here's the deal:
1. poke around Street Encounters
2. Invite your friend to a track day and/or autocross.

I know this is childish banter, however,I would love to prove him wrong. As my final semester in college comes to a close, I just want to shut this guy up. Everytime i'm on campus, he thinks hot stuff with his bov and talks so much trash. [If it was just one time, of course I would be able to ignore it. But this is multiple times] I just want to get figures on paper, maybe from C&D? I get what you guys are saying, but you know as well as I know.. how good it feels to shut down someones dreams.
