Unhappy eaten by a Grand Am

I went light to light with a Grand Am today, even though I reckoned I was short by 100 hp, 1.3 liters of displacement, and 1 tailpipe. (My only mods are CAI & exhaust.)

I got a poor launch, owing mostly to my lack of enthusiasm, and he was 2 lengths ahead by the time we hit 20mph. By 30, I was done. I'm guessing he wasn't even using all he had. Funny thing is, though, that we were up at the next red light before the cars behind us were barely even though the intersection.

He seemed like a cool dude, so I gave him a thumbs-up. Mad props to his Detriot muscle. I doubt he's out there bragging about spanking a station wagon, though.
