You're making some huge assumptions:
1) Evolution is true.
2) Every race evolved on its "home" planet.
3) Every race reached optimum.
4) The planets are uniform.
5) Each race doesn't have to compete with other lifeforms.
6) Each race hasn't had to compete for long enough for evolution to take that into account.
7) Ability to breed quickly is the main driving force of evolution.
