Unless your ss is > 125 mph, it should do you just fine.
My clubhead speed is around 100mph, so that shouldn't be a problem.

With all the new oversized drivers on the market (over 360cc heads) you definitely want something with under 4* of torque. Beware, the less torque, the stiffer the shaft (usually, but not in every case). A stiff flex with 3.9* torque would be comparable to a reg flex with 2.5* torque. Ensure that the shaft has been frequency tested or put on a flex board to determine if the flex matches your swing.
You don't recommend the 7-55 M.A.S.2 that comes with the r7's?
