I heard S2k can have a bit of temper due to "VTEC kicked in yo", but RX-8's power delivery is smooth and predictable enough that I wouldn't worry too much, and it just doesn't have enough torque for you to do damage.
Then again, I am not young to the point that I would want to drift in a parking lot. I got into Autocross in my RX-8 and it's a decently good car for that kind of stuff IMO. It's a good place to get your fix of thrill, make friends while not spending too much.

Yep, I was more concerned with the rear wheel drive and Northeast Ohio winters. He was just pissed because he loved the looks of it. Especially, when comparing it to the Honda Civic sedan. LOL!
