97 e320 (i6) vs. 99 slk 320

I was stopped at the stoplight and some asian guy in a slk 230 decided to race me. At green, I spun the tires for about a quarter of a second and I felt the engine really spin. I looked to my left and he also had a good reaction time. After 20 mph, I was a full car length a head and it stayed that way until I hit 110 mph and I flashed my emergency lights. Then me and him pulled over and I was amazed by how he could keep up with me. I asked him what he was running and he popped open the hood and showed me his custom headers and pulleys. He also says he was running 103 octane. That just shows that a suped up 4 can't beat a low mileage 6.
