Pulled up to a light on this legend. It was riced a bit with stickers and an exhaust of some sort. He was inching up so I knew it was on. We both launched well, he was about 2 feet ahead by 25 MPH, then I pulled ahead as his auto trans shifted. In 3rd I started taking him, I heard him downshift? the auto (at least it sounded like that). We were up to 70 MPH now and dead even. At 105 MPH I shut it down (a good 2 lane drag road with nobody else around, but still way to fast for that street) we were still dead neck and neck. We were never more than 2-3 feet apart the whole race. He shut down also when saw I backed off, he immediately rolled his window down and gave me the thumbs up and I did the same. We parted ways with a smile. I spotted him a few feet at the start too, also had my wife in the car with me, he had no passengers. I was rather proud of the old 5mge for giving the 3.2 V6 200HP honda all it could handle. Closest drag I have been in with the MKII thus far.
