if its was 1/8 mile race, yes win for STI ...
but it looks like the AMG was pulling on the STI as the race progressed?

I drove a 2004 E-55 and it is a torque monster. The car is sick and the gears pull for ever, very strong. From a roll the STi is dead.

PS: The paddle-shift buttons and gear changes were slooow on the E-55.

AMG built engine are monsters, unfortunatley the cars they put them in are tanks well expect for the Pagani Zondas. Power to weight ratio
