Default Not really a race

So I accelerate "briskly" on the interstate last night. Got an older (1990ish) Nissan 240sx coming up quick behind me. Decided to run it up and see how long he could hold on. We had to slow a few times because of traffic, but he stayed with me until 125. I didn't really start pulling on him until then. Got up to 135 and shut it down. He drove by, gave a quick wave, I gave him a thumbs up and that was it. I was impressed with him staying with me. Or should I be disappointed in my car? Either way, it was fun.

No, you shouldn't be disappointed with your car - he most likely had mods (possibly an engine swap). Stock, they are painfully slow (although a fun car to drive).
