The S2000 should have an acceleration advantage everywhere, at all speeds. If the BRZ being more aerodynamic was enough to give it an advantage at higher speeds, it would have a higher maximum speed. It doesn't. At FR-S/BRZ maximum speed (~147?), the S2000 still has the advantage, and continues accelerating to over 150.

- The BRZ has much better aerodynamic balance stock, compared to the S2k. The S2k makes a ton of rear lift, and a good amount of front downforce, stock, whereas the BRZ is zero lift (with factory aero). This is also why the BRZ gives the S2k such a good fight on mid-speed tracks, but it's also why the S2k simply decimates the BRZ once aero is added (just a rear wing).

Does the FR-S/BRZ really have zero lift? I'd be very surprised...
