I raced a new Lexus IS350 We did about 5 or 6 races first 1 off a dig he got me due to me spinning, 2nd was off a 20 roll i got him by a small margin did a few more with same results. Next light we both stopped and talked about our cars, he said his car has a V6 with 306hp and can go 0-60 in 5.3 seconds. Thats quick for a stock car even though it prob weighs less then 4000 pounds. Then we both did a burnout, which helped me get a great start hardly spun at all. I pulled on him until he got about a car behind, when I shifted into second he stayed there maybe pulled up a little. I let off around 90 I didnt wanna get too crazy loll he drove by giving me the thumbs up and turned off on the next street.

And surprisingly i won 
We did about 5 or 6 races first 1 off a dig he beat me due to me spinning like crazy, then off a 20 roll i got him by a small margin did a few more with same results. next light we both stopped in which he tells me his "V-6 has 306 hp and can go 0-60 in 5.3 seconds" I knew i had to beat him from a dig in order for me to actually count it as a win. We both did a burnout, light turned green i had a great start and pulled on him till he got a car length behind me, I shifted into second and he stayed there up till 90 when we let off. He drove by giving me the thumbs up and turned off on the next street.

Funny, I've only had 4 'races' in my SS... I'm not a fan of 'street racing' but if someone wants to go from a light, it's hard for me to turn that down. But back to why I thought this was funny is that I've beat 2 IS's and 2 TL's (non-type s). My dad has an 07 type s but we've yet to race...
