At my last track day there were a couple of S2000's in my group and I was surprised how well the FR-S was able to keep pace. Lightly modded S2000's pulled 1/2 car length or less in a half mile straight, up to about 120 mph. Not sure what mods the S2000's had other than aftermarket exhaust. I've got full exhaust and tune.
Even if you look at professional laptimes stock at power tracks like VIR or Laguna Seca, the times are surprisingly close.
