In the interest of making my life simpler, I will always try to match the font in a logo (by converting to outlines, and tweaking, as you mentioned). Sometimes I might need to mix and match letters from different fonts to find the closest starting point, but I don't feel the need to start from scratch tracing text when I can match the font and cut down on tracing time. And I agree with everyone else--definitely you want a vector file.
