Default Guy in my office wants to race the Avant (m)

One of my "co-workers" just bought a Lexus IS300 and seems very smitten with it. It's his first "performance sedan" and he thinks it's pretty quick. Until now he was driving a company car, (Dodge Stratus). The car is completely stock, a 5-speed. He know's I'm into cars and talks it up all the time. I just kind of yes him to death. Well, today he approached and asked if I wanted to have a little race for some $$, his bonus check. He's been heard telling people that there is no way he can loose to a Wagon. It would probably be 1/4 mile or 0-60 type thing. I would like to do it at a drag strip, maybe Island in NJ. He's a nice guy, just clueless. So, should I tell him it's on or just let it go? I probably wouldn't even switch my chip on. On the other hand, maybe I should fill up w/ 100 octane and flip to the race program for a complete thrashing. What do you guys think?

If you race him, give it everything you got so he has no excuses. No half-a$$ crap.

Default Thrash him silly.... and then if you want to keep it civil... give him all but $50 back

And tell him it's to cover your costs for the 100 octane =)

In fact... just get a full tank of it while he's buying! =)
