ML vs mazda

I was at a stop light the other night and some kids in the newer mazda 6 pulled up next to me pumping music and all. the light turns green and i could tell he was driving stick cuse he revved his car up a good amount so he has the jump i floor my poor ML320 and the race is on. 1st gear he shifts i pull up dead even with him my car shifts he pulls about 1-ft then he shifts then i pull it back neck on neck. i look down and the speedo is reading 65 in a 45 so i let off the gas and he keeps flying down the road. i bet i could of beaten him if i revved at the light and did a full power launch then i would of gotten a good car length from the launch. yes its scary but you can launch a ML. kind of sad that a 4,700lb 215hp/230lb tq suv can keep with with most cars.
