They are overrated. I think they run high 14's , low 15's. Its the RX-7's you need to look out for.

Like already said, if he was a 6spd manual, he can hit 14's pretty easily, and would outrun you VERY easily in the twisties. So my guess is he wasnt trying his hardest to beat you in the twisties because he could have with ease.
