almost a ticket
was treking home from my dorm, to my house down in fl tonight. was going 120-125 easily for majority of the night. blew right past a cop.....was like crapppp. cop pulls out in a hurry, but doesnt turn the lights on yet. im thinking i can make it to the next exit before he catches me, so i speed up a bit more. i can see the bonita exit sign markers, push the speed a bit more. the cop turns his lights on... about 5 seconds later i see him turn them off, then he ditches back onto the medium(spelling?). hit the off ramp, pulled a u'y then went back onto the highway. he would of thrown my *** in jail for sure if he caught up...just so joyfull with relief had to express it on the forum.
i've herd before..i think on this forum that majority of cops will just give up if a car is going fast enough, on the right stretch of highway, guess its true

you got very lucky, when you're going that fast, you're right, it's hard for them to catch up. But there are other police cars ahead that they can call and tell them to be ready for you. Undercover cars driving in traffic that you wouldn't even notice also. No to mention the camaro chase cars. I'm not totally against street racing, cause we all do it. But driving at 125+ and having to worry about a police car in back of you severly impairs your judgement. An accident at that speed would be nothing short of fatal. Count your blessings and don't let it happen again.
And to the rest of you guys...don't even think for a second that because you're going very fast a police car won't bother chasing you or notifying other police cars ahead. your *** is grass if you're caught.

Houston, Jan 2002, if I memory serves. Comming from Clear lake/ League City area at around 2:30 am, to Galveston, I was driving my Honda CRX Si, and doing about 115mph-120mph, passed a bridge and there he was (the cop), kept going without slowing down (though I couldn't speed up any more!) and he never bothered to chase. Good thing though :-)

some of the roads down in So Cal are so bumpy and un even and my struts are so blown that at high speeds, my car just bounces up and down, left and right, round and round...
if i had a SE stick instead of a GXE auto, id totally invest in some tokicos, eibachs, and ST or Addcos. im still waiting to get my 240 or hopefully a 510!!!
if i were going down a nice level road (like to vegas), id be fine with pointing my needle down at my steering column, but when you bounce as much as i do, you know its scary as hell!
