You are in the same ballpark with hp but dont come close on torque though you weigh about 3800-3900 vs. 5100. I also wonder if that guy racing you was doing it with his Traction Control on - if so then everytime he broke tires loose it would have kicked in and in the Benz it is a serious boner killer! I would have expected a closer race.
My car has no problem pulling over 100mph, take a look at this vid...

Sounds like a good time. How are you liking Chicago? You are originally from California?
I've had some good races on LSD - raced a 360 CS in the Z06 going northbound last month - that was fun (although, not much of a race... heh)

We should get together sometime and compare rides.

"compare" - hahaha, great word.
I'm out all the time, was out at Streets of Woodfield last night - it wasn't half bad, usually there's a lot of young punks and a bunch of riff raff but last night it was actually not bad at all. Very civilized and a boatload of cars.
Where exactly are you living? I'm from the North Shore, Glenview area...
