Kid wants to race me!

Theres this kid who really wants to race me. I dont really wanna race him but he wont shut his mouth about how fast his car is and how mines pure rice.

He has a 1995 Saturn SC2, manual tranny.
It has a 1.9 liter 124hp completly stock engine.

I have a 1990 Honda Civic LX, manual tranny.
I have a short ram intake and GT Spec muffler.
I am a pretty good driver with stick and I dont know how good he is.

Should I back off or will I look like a wuss.
I know he will call me one if I do.
I mean if you guys think I will at least stay with his car i will race him.
But if he will smoke me then i dont wanna race.

Thanks,
Owen

Ask him if he wants to race in reverse, around a corner, & downhill. Then you might have a chance because he's more likely to crash. or maybe 2 cars & the go

I recommend not racing.... simply because if you are taking up both lanes than faster cars behind you will be blocks and a traffic jam could ensue.
