I know what other people call it, but would you agree with it? S2000 is as much an FR as the Boxster is an RR. What distinguishes them from either spectrum is the fact that both cars’ engine weight is kept between the F/R axles - thus mid-engine - and its advantage is just as equivalent for both cars. You’ll find the more studious car magazines (Car, EVO, etc.) do cknowledge that the S2000 does have a MR layout but stuck with the FR moniker.
Fwiw, S2000 actually has slightly better weight distribution (51/49) than Boxster. So, RandallNeighbour, your bet has just a good a chance on a Russian Roulette.
Then again, according to SCCA “parking lot” racing…
