Raced a V8 Ram

Was on my way home on Friday with my girlfriend driving next to a newer v8 ram. We were at a red light next to one another when it turned green I slowly let out the clutch and gently hit the gas (how my gf likes me to drive) only to hear screeching tires next to me. The Ram takes off and instantly gets 2 cars on me before I can process what the hell is going on. I slam down the gas and am caught up half way through second, about a car when I shift into third, and about 3 cars and pulling when I shut down at ~70. The ram goes flying by and we catch the next light. Again the Ram takes off, but I already proved my point and slowly pull from the light and watch him drive away (besides my gf was kind of pissed). The funny thing is that my friend was following me in his jeep and witnessed the entire thing.

The probably raced the new Ram which has the 4.7L V8 with 235hp, if it wasnt a Hemi. My friend has one. They arent that fast. Especially if its a quad cab like the one my friend has.
