He was talking about Warp drives, not impulse. As far as slower than light drives go I've seen nothing to indicate that impulse is faster. Have you seen the dogfights (of lack thereof) in trek. Even looking at shuttles/runabouts vs. SW fighters (craft that are similar enough to be compared) the trek craft are rediculously ponderous. Again, the speed edge has to go to SW.
