137mph and they didnt take his car or arrest him? Im calling bullshit.

its not bullshit

i've been pulled for being clocked at 143 in my old talon, didnt even see the fucker, he clocked me from a ramp i passed and i lived off the next exit, picked me up at the light.

told him my throttle cable stuck and he let me go with a warning.

I took my tt 300zx to 160, its crazy going that fast, looking back I see how stupid I was. Going that speed is like doing 80 and the other cars are stopped objects.

Yah, I took a friend's Integra to 140 according to the speedo, on a busy interstate near Nashville, so I could wake them up and scare the ---- outta them (wasn't my car).

I don't drive that fast anymore though. Especially in the tincan CRX.

guess that's the difference in places with alot of cops / highway patrol and down here. cased down and called the cops on a pair of dudes doing 110-120mph in an accord one day for almost 20 miles. not because he was driving so fast. (ive blown by a handful doing 120-150+... they know not to chase) when the two nimrods passed me they clipped a van infront of me. passing people on shoulders, passing people on bridges by swearving into the little side area a larger car would not have fit in.
know what the highway patrol center (*HP) did??? transferred me to the sherrif's office two counties away from where we are. i had the sherrif transffer me to the nearest HP post, who then transffered me to my home city - which was on the way we were going. i told them where to send somebody to pick the dude up, they had a good 10+ minutes to get someone there which would have taken... 30 seconds for the super walmart dick to get there. noone was there so i gave up.

apparantly, it doesn't matter if you drive like an asshat in the state of alabama, aslong as you do it really really fast. :1






meh. done 160+ easy riding in a huge truck 155 in an old vette. lexus use to do 140-155. doesn't appeal to me as much anymore. fun when you're not a teenager anymore.

Meh, depends where you are.

Interstates that run through small bumfuck counties, they'll be waiting for you. When you go through a town like Courtland that's 90% poverty, they'll be happy to pull you over. Last time I got a ticket in one of these places, for going 11 over in a 70mph zone, and the court would not let me go unless I paid the ticket on my court day. This was news to me since every other normal sized city I've been ticketed in would have nice payment plans or give you another date to pay by.

Apparently, NC has a secret nazi breeding program, the means/ends of which they decided to use to patrol the highways.

sometimes i'll roll race on the freeway and troll for some unsuspecting corvettes, mustangs, and hi-dollar euro cars. Usually shut down at about 120-130 because faster than that is just stupid and dangerous, besides i've already embarassed them while they view my tail lights.

Wow, I can't believe someone was driving around on a public freeway with illegal tint, that person is a danger to America.
