from the US SSA 1997 Sailplane directory..

performance is listed as 40/1 at 60knt or 111kph

as for it "being suitable"... IT DEPENDS...
in what type aircraft was your primary training..
in what type aircraft has your advanced training..

have you ever flown an ASK-21 or Grob 103.. if you are pilot qualified..
(P1?) in those.. then I would consider it "suitable" for a "First aircraft"
