Interesting how much slower the 997S is to the others - must not be -20mm suspension...
Yeah, this kinda annoys me. I suppose it's in Porsche's best interests for the more expensive C4S to out handle the S, but this isn't because of the 4wd. The suspension is tuned better on the 4S pasm than the 2s pasm (magazines have documented the differences). I'd be pissed if I had a C2S pasm, cause I know that it could be improved. Good thing for the rest of the world where you can get a 2S -20mm that will out handle all of the above. If you needed 4wd in a rear engined car to handle well in the dry, the race cars would all be 4wd.

I seem to remember that the 996C4S had lower lap times than the 996C2 of the same model year....

Yep, turboesque suspension and more grip will do that. Make a wide body 996 C2 with the same sort of suspension and tire size and you'll get better lap times than the C4s.
