Default 626 power, ohh ya baby

A friend of mine was taking me to work in his 2000 mazda 626. Its an auto with a poopy v6, anway we are at the last stoplight when a HEAVILY riced out pre 92 civic with silverstar lights comes up next to us, my friend revs his auto and the guy laughs at us and revs back. My friend launchs ok and DESTROYS the civic, must have been at least 3 car lengths by 60. I thought it was funny becuase he laughed at us and he got wned:

Ummm.... just curious, but isn't it usually the case that the car with the most power wins?? I mean, when we get down to it, isn't drag racing a power competition? (all other things being equal).

Hell, if I couldn't be happy about beating cars with "a lot less power," I'd never have anything to celebrate! God knows I don't get many wins against cars with a lot more power!

Just being obnoxious...

I agree w/FMOS

If that diaper wearing punk on the tricycle gives me the eye and revs...................its on.

Kinda like the commercial where the dude in the VW Passat W8 races a kid on a bicycle. 'cept I'd have smoked his pedaling azz.

The origional post clearly stated both people revved. You rev then your fair game.
