This is OVERKILL... 
People go out and do something with your lives! Everyone is entitled to their freedom of speech especially if it favors the same exact thing that this site supports! If you don't like it then don't read it. 
Who knows the S2000 gods probably wanted an article like this

Drew states facts that are true. I don't see a problem with that. As well, Drew has extensive track experience. Evos and STis are great cars, they're fun. But they're also what true racers (and no, not street racers, kids) call "cheater cars", it's easier to go faster in one of them with less skill. But they limit you once your skills get better (unless you have extensive mods, as Drew said). This has been proven time and time again in our So Cal autocross circle.
I did a very thorough evaluation of how all the cars would perform before I purchased one. I drove ALL of them in an autocross environment. So I know what I'm talking about. And I'm here to back Drew up based on that experience. Can you say the same?

My problem is the blatant lack of respect for all of the other members here that is shown by putting that article on the homepage.
If the forum title was Drew'sBiasedOpinions.com it would be one thing. S2000 International is another.
Clean it up.

But come on now...it's based on the Lancer. Which. is. an. econobox.
What he's saying is that it's not a purpose built sports car. And it's not. Build quality is not top notch. Drive an Sti and you'll see the difference.

i think its about time someone had the balls to say what they feel. sorry that so many of you whiners want it removed. you cant always play *professional* cause your gonna get stepped on. ask most any evo owner you meet on the street,, hey, s2000! they go,,,, slow. yet ive only lost to 2, one at 400 whp, and one at 500 whp. the rest are slow. so i give it right back to them. i like the fact that our page stands up for our mighty lil car. makes me feel good, and it never hurts to talk a little smack now and then, it keeps the playing field level. let the flames go, who cares, its the internet. later dave
