Did he pull away from you easily or did you keep with him to a certain speed?

Which still dwarves a 1.6 Corsa; and then there is the matter or torque from a 5.0 V10 compared with 1.6...
I would expect to be raped by an M6 and I have 240bhp...

I know, he could have a nicely tuned 1.6.
And I wasnt asking if he beat ir anyway, I was asking if he kept with it to a certain speed.
