Being that I own both an 03' Evo 8 and an 00' S2 - I can comment a bit in regards to the handling of each car.

Obviously the car can do but so much, anything further is going to come down to the skill of the driver. If you have a newer driver on the Dragon - the AWD Turbo will reign over the S2. It is, for lack of better words a much easier vehicle to drive... I've taken turns in my Evo at rather intense speeds that didn't as much as chirp the tires. Taking the same turn in the S2000 would require some bit of skill, to stop the rear end from coming around on you.

Non-the-less, it should definitely be an interesting meet!

Poor guys will probably be so tired of seeing S2000s they won't want to see another one

Hey guys just thought I would post up here real quick. The Orlando Subaru/Mix crew is leaving on thursday night and heading up through Atlanta. We will be staying just north of Atlanta and leaving early in the morning to get to the Tapoco Village. If anyone is going up through the ATL area around this time and wants to caravan, let us know.

Oh and we should be at Tapoco around 2 or 3, maybe earlier depending on how antsy we get

I will post up our radio frequencies once we decide, so if anyone feels like coming to say hi or making a run, you know where to get us!

I can't frickin wait!
