2002 clk55 vs. svt cobra

So i'm going back from work last night and I notice this pretty loud noise next to me, I look and what do I see a black svt cobra next to me and obviously trying to race me. So i'm like whatever and know their pretty fast. It was traffic and finally we both came to a light. I turned my traction control off and put it in first, the light turned green and i had a pretty good lunch with almost no pill off so did he, we're both hitting about 90 now and i'm a little more than a half a car in front of him. We're almost going 100 now so we both let it go, i'm guessing I won so i'm very happy with my car. But i got to admit it was pretty fast and the whining of that supercharger was hot, I could here it the whole time. At the end he was behind me so i gave him thumbs up and he flashed his lights and left.
