c32 amg vs clk55 amg

I own a c32 amg, and i just bought a 2003 fully loaded clk55 amg. The engine i believe is broken in, so i had a cousin who owns a g55 amg drive and race. We did it from a roll at 60 miles, who ever honks and we go, i honked and he got like a half-car push off me then i came and passed not to quickly but i pulled away and at the end i was doing around 135mph and he said he was doin 128mph. So i won, but still AMG'S RULE!

A bit surprised to me. I thought the C32 will have the jump and the CLK55 will pull away eventually because the V8 should have more juice at high end over the V6. Your result is totally opposite to what I expected.
