Default Death to a mitsu

I have been out of action for a while, unfortunatelly it was a death. i saw the guy in northchase business section. we raced from a dig, I honked three times and he launched his Silver Lancer quite good..Due to my torque I initially got few feet on him. He was definetely a manual, while I was enjoying the long gears of automatic. We were about even till about 35- 40 mph but then he slowly started to pull away. He got about a car on me by 70mph and we let go because the road was about to end. We pulled over and exhanged comments of a good race. First death in a while By the way i was driving astro 6 cylinder utility van full of utilities, concrete and 40 ft ladder.
