u should do some research b4 u open ur big mouth, stupid
a sl600 and 55 r very close, i THINK the 600 would be even faster in the long run b/c more torque and b/c the weight penalty diminishes w/ speed
u will beat him in a short run, in the long run itll b a different story, completely the opposite of what u said, i got the RESEARCH 2 prove it.
if u have a credible source, please dont hesitate, let us all know :p
