In the end, both cars have their pros and cons for track use.
It's interesting that stock v. stock in the hands of great drivers, the laptime difference between these two is quite small, less than 1 second, even with the S2000's 40 hp advantage and BRZ on touring tires. This is at MRLS too.

The problem is, once you add aero, the S2k runs away from the BRZ...
Also, that Laguna lap is bunk. I lap FAR faster than that in a stock s2k, and I'm no pro.
