Run in with an Accord last night ... Not good

I don't race the maxima anymore because well it's my daily driver for work and bone stock now. But i saw this accord with a big exhaust and couldn't resist.

We line up and the guy is giving me this look, I see he has racing seats and a five point harness so I'm thinking what a riceboy.. bahahaha..
I power brake and he does the same but his car is really loud for a 4cyl .. ???
Light turns green and we are off... well he was off, by the time I hit 30 he had 27 carlengths on me...

We stopped to chat .. here's some pics of his car

You did not race this guy!
If you cant tell the difference between the sound of a Chevy small block and a 1.6L Honda you've got problems. Besides, look at the rear, It's tubbed! If you actually did race this guy(highly doubt it) in a stock Max, you have some issues.
