CL-S vs. Dakota 5.9 R/T

So I'm behind a red Dodge Dakota 5.9 R/T with some kind of aftermarket exhaust and "racing" numbers in the back window about to get onto the I-60 East off of Country Club. Anyway, I'm on the phone with my girl while she's telling me what to pick up from the grocery store not even thinking about racing, and then all the sudden when the turn signal turns green, the R/T kicks the back end out and takes off. I'm now about two to three car lenghts behind him because I'm sleeping on the tree talking on the phone. I remain on the phone and without even giving any clue that I'm about to get into a race, I stomp on it. The front tires kick out the front just a bit (love me some torque steer!) and proceed to pull up on the R/T at a steady pace. He was definitely WOT because the exhaust was screaming. At around 65 mph I'm passing by him and at 80 I'm a good car and a half length ahead. Once we got onto the highway I got off of it and just grin as he passes by. My buddy in CT used to have a 5.9 R/T and it was definitely decently fast, so I was really impressed with the CL-S taking it out considering this R/T was at least slightly modded. See, this is why I love my auto, just stomp on the gas and hang on, all while maintaining a conversation on the celly. I finished my conversation with my girl and she had no idea what I had just done. Good times. Now I'm even more eager to get the XS headers on just to pull even more on those who challenge me.
