Raced another TL-S!

As I was driving home late tonight, I approached a trafific light and found some kid in my town who has a black TL-S sitting at the light. We BS a little bit about the TL-S and he says lets see who's TL-S is quicker. The thing was that I had 5 people in my car and he was alone. So, I said lets do it even though I knew I was gonna lose. First gear we hung pretty even, but then in second and third he started walking on me and he had me by a car length by 90. I thought that was pretty good considering all the weight. But then he said he wanted to go with just me in the car. So, I dumped my friends temporarily and went one on one. This time, we were pretty even in first, but this time I started to pull on him in second and third to a point where I had him by car length to 100.
I know it was really dumb of me to do what I did, but it was fun.
I assume my car is broken in better, or he just wasnt as good as a driver. But one thing is for sure, extra weight in the TL-S hurts alot.

Extra weight in any car will slow it down considerably.

Hmm....

So you dumped your five friends out on the street and then raced this "kid" in his TL-S?? To 100mph?? So, um, were your five friends just standing there at the corner of the intersection, or what?

you could have split your friends, half in your car, half in the kid's car.
