my only ticket was for speeding in a construction zone a little more than 6 years ago, luckly it was sunday night(like 3am) and the highway was dead with no traffic at all.
god mustve been whispering into that cops ear because by all accounts i shouldve been locked up for driving that fast but got off with a warning because i told him exactly what i was doing, trying to hit the limiter.
i was clocked going 136mph, that was when i saw him if he wouldve hit me 5 seconds sooner he wouldve got me at 145.
to teach me a lesson he drove me down the highway about 5 miles, maybe more and made me walk back to my car which may or may not be there because of the tow trucks(incentive:hick: )
lesson learned is all i got to say:bowdown: .

i like that story how long ago was that

Didn't actually get a ticket, but I imagine it could have been pretty steep for the time I chased down a couple of speeding County Sheriff's deputies that passed me up as I was doing the limit of 55. It ticked me off that they were speeding, while I had to stay under the limit...so I caught up with and paced them for awhile at about 85 mph.:burnout: They didn't like that. They pulled some fancy police trickery and basically got themselves postitioned both in front and behind me, flipped on the lights, and pulled me over.

Long story short - The officer shook my hand, pointed out that I should take care of the 2-month out of date inspection sticker, and let me go.

The conversation that took place in between is a bit much to go into here. If you want the whole story, you'll have to ask me to tell it at CatJam next summer!;)

LMAO, Royce I made that mistake once here too!, I was behind a cop at a stop light in town, and when it changed to green, he stomped it and chirpped the tires. Well I thought, "if you can do it, I can". So I lit them up and stayed with him, till about 80kms/hour in a 50 zone. (in the middle of town). As soon as I turned off and headed back into town, he wipped around and came after me.

Couldn't tag me for speeding so he nailed me with a warning for window tint was too dark. (the 85 Cougar) Had a buddy with me too. he said I was an idiot. LOL.

I've only gotten one ticket. I got it after I had my Traction-Lok installed because I wanted to see how a two wheel burn out looked :hick: . I didn't get out of that one.

I got out of a 50 in a 35 though (the only other time I was pulled over). A Chicago cop pulled me over and I had my city ID badge on me. He let me go because I worked for the city. Sometimes it pays to have a government job

Once my brother and I were in my 88 Cougar on Sr 33 Lancaster bypass (Martin knows this road) going about as fast as the old cougar would go. I'm guessing around 125ish. A cop whipped around and turned his lights on then turned them off about 5 seconds later. He was a distant memory in the rear view mirror.

I passed a cop doing 100mph+ he was in turn lane with his signal to go my way and lucky day for me he had better stuff to do than chase me down.

Got a warning on time for 60 in a 45 after i got my H.O. Swap and it was X-mas eve lesson was sometimes they can be nice.
