Default Stock MY01 vs. new Maxima

So im driving to work this morning making good time to work. I would have been earlier than normal which would have made my bosses happy and shocked. Im casually driving along and pass a Maxima minding my own business. He pulls in behind me and is pacing me... I speed up some he speeds up with me. He goes to make a pass, just to be sure he was trying to race I speed up in 6th gear some. He speeds up, i drop into 5th (around 70-74mph) not quite vtec yet, he still gaining on me... i drop into 4th and ahhh yea im in vtec now. By this time he is beside me and were both wide open. He is still gaining on me until im in top of 4th, boom, shift into 5th and now i see im starting to pull. I got about a half a car length to a full car length on him by the time i decide to let off. I think i was around 110-114 at this point. Here is where the close call comes to play. I start slowing down when I am beside a chevy impala, he looks at me kinda funny and i notice the extra antennas on his trunk. The guy in the maxima blows on past, the Impala rides beside me for a little bit then takes off and persues the Maxima and then he cuts the lights on and pulls him over (undercover!!!!!) . So I proceed to go to the next exit and take the country roads to work of which im later than usual. BTW, no cars were around.

start the race at lower mph and you get better results. they have good high end.
