The S2000 is actually not a good choice to compare your car to, because the way it runs is about as opposite as you can get from you V8 with low end torque. The S2000 has no low end whatsoever and the clutch must be slipped mercilessly off the line to run a decent 1/4. The 0-60 time for these cars I would expect to be slower than the average 14.0sec 1/4 mile car.

BTW - even with a terrible launch I ran a worst of 14.48 in the 1/4 when my 00GT was stock. I would say 14.0 is pretty average for these cars with a competent driver.
