One way to find out. Take it to the track or Google 0-60 times subtract a second from your time and compare.

If you were RWD... I'd give the win to you but that car has a solid top end which you will lack.

Higher octane and higher map. Race him from a dig. Power brake to about 2000rpm in that XI, and you should eat him up off the start. Race fuel, higher map will help you upper end.

Alan, It will be a close race. Those newer E550's and CLK550's are pretty quick. Use some race gas and map 5 to get an edge on him.

Incorrect. The first year of the E550 coupe was 2010.

Problem is he might have you from 60-130. That's where race gas will help you keep the lead till 1/4 mile or so. It all comes down to the race parameters and skill of the drivers.
