I do not call a 50 trim laggy by any means. What did you race to? If I remember correctly, at 30mph, you are at ~4000 rpm in second. I raced an SRT4 from that on my 50 trim. I pretty much spent 2nd building boost and slowely pulling till I hit 3rd and was gone. The lagginess should ony be noticable while spooling the turbo initially. If you were in 2nd, you shouldn't have had much of a problem as long as you didn't double clutch every gear.

Don't worry, you will totally whoop his ass shortly.
