altima GXE vs Jaguar S-Type V8

well i woke up in the morning to go in my fathers altima ( with 15" allowy wheels ,, upper strut bar and some other small mods) to the guy i know in Newark ,
so i was cruising on highway 21 South going to newark with my speed of about 55mph and eventually i get to the first stop on the first lights in newark (nobody in front of me for like 500 meters),i stand there bored for couple of seconds and then i look in my rear view mirror ,i see a speeding car jumping from lane to lane passing everybody till he gets all alone ( at which point i can figure out that it is a jaguar) and turns into the right lane (me standing in left lane), he pulls up to me, stops next to me and looks at me ,without any gesture he turns his head back and looks the other way,,
right away i pull the car a little bit to the front so that my bumber is ahead of his ,he looks back at my car and then he pulls a little bit and gets even with me ,we stand like that for 10 seconds and then he pulls up, stops, looks at my rims and laughs ,, well at that point i could not take it i had to challenge him ,,once again i pull up to get even with him ,all my attention goes to the red light and i wait till it changes,
and then baaaammmmm light changes to green ,i step on my gas pedal like i was going to brake it ,,wheels start to spin making some weak squeaks , then the guy looks at me knowing what is happening and floors it too ,,on the first gear i get to 20mph still a little bit ahead of him from the early start , at about 28 mph he gets even with me , and then we go even till 40 mph, after 40 mph my gear switches to 3rd and stays in third till about 47mph thats when the guy took off like he was on a fricking rocket ship , , there was no way for me to catch up to that basterd he took me by 4 car lenghts and then cut into my lane still gaining speed and distance, at this point i look at the back stickers which says Type-S and i think to myself that there was no way i could take that basterd and i slow down to 35 mph and with my confused face i drive off into the city ,

this was performed on about 500 meters free route without any cars or people in front of us , there was no traffic in front of us , only behind us ,,so there was danger only to me and to the driver of the second vehicle,,i know that street racing is illegal,
