Yup, I'm still a kid. 16 years old and my dad bought me a 545i. he pays for gas, tolls, insurance, food, etc. 
I admit I was racing a bit but only to an extent. When he cut me off, I let off the gas. I could've went to the middle where it splits the oncoming traffic and passed him but decided not too. There were no oncoming traffic at the time. I played it safe just in case. pretty sure everyone road races here and there. Just admit to it.

Us old geezers did stupid things also when we kids but we learned from them as we got older. Hopefully you will learn that street racing is dangerous and uncool. Next time you see someone who wants to race you on a public street look at him like the idiot he is and just continue on. Thats called maturity.
Just a wee bit hipocritical if you ask me, dont ya think.
I say if brabusw209amg thinks he was in control of the situation and from his vantage point he didnt take things too far, then no harm no foul. I surely am not gonna pass judgement.

It's not about how mature you are. You can be mature yet go for a lil run from time to time. I usually continue on but also depends to the car next to me.

Yup thats a 16 yr old talking. BTW I am 60 yrs old and to compare the wisdom of a 16 yr old to that of a 60 yr old is like comparing a raft to the Queen Mary.
Anyone who doesnt know what we're talking about, check out the cunard luxury cruises.
