Would I fit a 2013 CAAD10 52cm frame based off my current 51cm 2009 Felt Z80?

I'm looking at getting a new frame, specifically a 2013 Cannondale CAAD10 (52cm). Right now I ride a 2009 Felt Z80 (51cm).

CAAD10 Geometry: http://www.cannondale.com/2013/bikes...ouble-crankset
Felt Z80 Geometry: http://2009.feltracing.com/09-catalo...es/09-z80.aspx

I'm just wondering if this would be a pretty smooth upgrade. I love the ride of my Z80, I ride pretty fast on it, have taken it through a few duathlons, but am looking into the CAAD10 because I want a lighter frame that would be faster for racing (20-30mi), and still be ok for a good low/mid mileage weekend ride (30mi). If this would do a century without sending stitches through my back, that's definitely something on my radar too.

I had a 2006 Felt F5C 50cm (http://www.spaso.com/felt/geometry.php?bk=F5C) that I took through a few races that was torture to ride. So I would really wish the CAAD10 52cm would fit more like the Z80.

And yes I'm only referring to the 52cm CAAD10 because I've got the chance to buy that frame off someone for CHEAP.
