Yesterday I was on my way home from school, and at a stop light this dude in 97 green chevrolet tahoe pulls up to me asking me for a race, so the light turns green. I had a better launch than him but after a few seconds he just passes me and he beats me by 2 car lenghts.

my car is deff not fast but lets be honist our cars are not THAT slow actualy we can take most the late 90's economy cars  and most 90's suv gas guzzlers.actualy we can take all cars in that have a 110mph gov (and most do) so dont stop till you hit 120 and you'll win every time
