I did'nt have a chance

I was driving home the other night and was going about 65 when the car pulled up and passed me really fast. I gave it the gave and caught up at around 90 and he was driving next to me till we were about to come up on a big truck and he took off and cut in front of me. I was so pissed of so I caught up again ( only cause he let me) and we came up on another truck and he did it again. Damn I was pissed. The thing that pissed me off the most is that my car would not get over 102 with my new motor. I think it may be because it was leaned out so that it would pass our strick emissins but I am not sure. We now to the good part of the story that eases my pride, the car was a new 2002 Acura Integra NSX it could have been a (Type S) but I am not sure, so I do not feel as bad.
I just cant get over how my car just stoped accelerating when I hit 100. I wonder if it was my car running to lean? Any Ideas on why my stock RX7 just stoped at 100?

They run mid 14's according to some of the things ive read....

Not sure about why you stopped at 100 tho... Could always install an A/F Meter/Guage itll come in hand if you ever need to tune a carb... not to expensive either, $40 for guage $20 for sensor and however much a local shop will charge to weld in a bung for the O2 sensor in your header.
