The track performance of the EVO won it as far as the "Which is Faster" calculation..... I have to say that the 0-100kph and 0-160kph times for the EVO look fairly slow.....

Guys figure recheck needed. Note the top seep and acceloration time of the S3 to the Evo.
Then the answer hows the Evo faster?
