Post RSA vs. C2/C4

I was wondering if someone could clue me in on the performance #'s of an RS America vs a C2/C4. 0-60, 1/4 mile, top speed, etc...And are there any differences in RSA's depending on year?

Thanks!

Dear Sam,
In all honesty you would be hard to find the performance differences. All three side by side in standard form will be almost identical inperformance.
I would take a RSA over a C2 but the C4 is the best overall road performer in my opinion. However I am terribly biased because I own one,
Ciao,

The RSA's are slightly lighter than a C2. mostly from delete options. The engines are the same as the USA C2. I saw a comparison of road tests that actually listed a cab as faster, but it was not in the same test.

I would say the biggest difference is the lack of power steering and a stripped down chassis. For a good comparison I'd look at this page:http://p-car.com/porsche/gary/93rs.html,
its got some good comparisons on it, lists the carrera cup as well. also check out Keith V, he's starting the RSA registry and a page on RSA's:http://www.angelfire.com/ca2/keithv/
