Actually, no, they'll both run slowly. So far as I know, VB.NET and VC++.NET are both compiled down to the CLR and then interpreted on the machine that's running it.
I've never done a comparison as my device isn't .NET capable, but I'd expect the (managed) .NET executables to be significantly slower than a "real" C++ executable.
