I kept repeating the words in my head as I lined up for my first race.
"You'll never beat that car."
It was a 2014 SRT Viper.
He had a point. I was not ever going to beat that guy. But, you never know. He might just mess up the start.
3...2...1...
He didn't.
My car has roughly 30bhp less than his, and a one mile per hour difference in top speed. But my car accelerates faster.
