Install a purge kit with a CO2 tank attached.
Aim the purges out of your passenger front bumper to where his air intake is.
Line up to race him and make sure he takes the right lane
Hold the purge starting after the first honk and load his intake with CO2
robbing his engine of air.
Take off on the third honk.
Everytime he starts getting close, purge into his intake and stall him out again.
Win for you!

I hate people that constantly feel the need to tell anyone with a slower car that they'll win in a drag race. Plenty of cars out there that will shame an ss/sc.....
Do what you want to you're car, mod it to you're liking, and if you shut him up, good on you. A stock ss/sc is not a rocket...

less without a purge kit, remote bottle opener and heater, about 650 for a nice safe kit.
