s500 vs evo lancer

My freind and I were talking about racing, I didn't really want to because I thought he would take me by like 10 cars. anyhow we drive on route 18, I beep 3 times and we let it go. (we started at 60 mph). ok well it was like this. He pulled on me until about 75 and then we were just solid even. he had about a 1 1/2 cars infront of me. I think at 120 I started catching up but he pressed the breaks. I was pretty happy that I didn't get killed it was a solid race. If I punched it first I think he would have had me by 1/2 a car.

EVO 8s have short gears. MB have tall gears. You can beat them above 100 mph. I raced my friend who has an EVO 8 with my CLK 55 and above 100 mph I passed him as if he was 60 and I was 75. But still I bought an EVO8 because the handling is
