02 c230 k vs 02 Audi A4 1.8t

I just got back home, me and a few friends were going to a club. My friend drives an Audi A4 1.8t, really beatufill car, Stick Shift. I drive my stock 02 c230 copue, auto, 18''s.

We raced about 4 times. The first one in the street (clear , 3:30 am) from about 30 to 70, and it was pretty even, but I won by a little (1/4 of a car). The second one was from a light at stateroad 84,, In 1st gear I took the lead by like 1/4 of a car but he pulled right next to me, when I shifted to third I gained half a car on him and pulled away slowly. The other 2 tiems we raced from about 75 to 110 on the highway, both times I won by half a car once and by a car and 1/4 the other one.

Had a blast, lost of cars were racign i nthe highway today, that **** was crazy but didnt race anyone else.

I would have thought with a stick he may have gotten you more off the line. Good races though
