S65 vs. E55

A friend of mine just ordered a new S65. Have any of you guys raced an S65? What can I expect?

You will lose. Old stock S65/CL65 have run 11's in the 1/4 mile, the outcome will be even worse for you from a highway roll. However, I heard that the new S65 is much heavier than the old S65... so that might play in your favor from a stop.

You can expect to get beaten pretty bad.
