Smart move not racing him after having a few drinks. You're right... most people don't realize the power of the 550 (or even my 545 for that matter).

Or, alternatively, don't race him, because who really cares, and say: "Dude, I just bought a couch. Can you deliver it for me?"

Or: "Dude, can I borrow your rig for the night? I want to sit right next to my girlfriend, so we can listen to a shitty stereo and peer at the moonlight out the back of that cab."

Or, just let him beat you. Because he'll still be in a Ford Lightning when he gets there.

YeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeHawwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

His lightning is stock, so I think taking him shouldnt be a problem. Do you guys recommend I use launch mode in this race?
Make sure you know how to launch. Don't just step on the pedal. Remove your spare tire and shave some personal weight if possible. Leave only a 1/4 tank of gas. Those weight savings should guarantee a victory even if you get a bad start.

Remember to fold down your rear seats for extra speed. It redistributes the weight !
