I think you did something wrong

(6k rpm shift ?? way too soon)
Even with a bad launch he should not have been able to get in front of you even less with full bolt on!
Having said that, letting him go was certainly better than street racing him.
I hate when people do stuff like that but I'm not gonna do worst then them either ...
