'86 bird vs. 01 cavalier

So, This is going to be the start of my list. A friend of mine that lives in the next building over, see's me at Tim Hortons and decides to try and race me. Long story short, light turns green, we're even throughout first, hit second and grind it, he pulls away a bit then I put it IN second and fly back past him, third, fouth and that's about it!!!! My first street race!!! Too bad for grinding second gear though, but at least I'm admitting it!!!
