...suprisingly it felt better than usuall! 
Was driving home and noticed this Corsa Gsi up my bumper, I recognised it cos its a local lad that boots it around town all the time and thinks he is the best in the world. Always washing it and cleaning his engine bay. Not that there is anything wrong with that before people start!
Anyway, see him behind me and he is revving up and sort of weaving behind me. The car in front of me indicates to turn off and there is a big road ahead about to come into play. I give him a couple of pops from my exhaust to let him know I will play and as soon as the car infront exits from infront of me I floor it. 1st and 2nd gears he wasn't too far behind but from 60mph in 3rd he was just fading away. I wasn't even using the gears correctly just having a bit of fun. Get to the bottom of the road which is traffic lights at the start of a dual carraigeway and like a muppet he pulls up along side me and start edging forward, keeping his eye on the traffic lights. Lights turn to amber and he floors it. Gets away first (cos he cheated lol.) But only for about a second, I get a really good launch and my extra 1000rpm helps me get in front. Into 3rd and he is trailing again. I'm thinking this is too easy and want a bit more fun so slow down to around 50. He pulls up about an inch from my bumper again, but I had a plan. I didnt pull away again so this time let him overtake me. He gives me a smirk as he does so and proceeds to floor it. This time I take chase, I wanted my turn. Am up his bumper (not too close cos I hate twats that do that!) As he is accelerating full pelt we hit around 80mph. I pull into the next lane and proceed to pass him returning the little smirk from earlier.
I then turn round and carry on my journey home as I was now going the complete wrong way home!

I had a race with another RS50 yesterday lunchtime, it was the older shape and his was standard.
He beat me, I was not impressed.
I have always known the older RS to be faster.
I feel robbed.

or maybe you and your bike are weight more that the other rider and his bike meaning he has a better pwr:weight ratio therefore quicker. I feel you need to go on a diet and lose some pounds

No he looked to be of a simular weight, his RS has also done 22,000 km's, mine has done 4,000 km's and I have a full Arrow race system.
I still feel robbed.
