As the former owner of an 86 GT Hawse, I completely understand.
But as they say...if you can’t do the time, don’t do the crime.
In my younger stupider days I had my bike up to just shy of 120. Not hard to do at all on that bike. Kind of scary for my passenger.
We gonna air You out, boy!.................
The best one I ever heard was the guy who said he had to go to the restroom real bad and that is why he was speeding. LOL
I was once driving down US27 in Florida, at night, doin 110, when I noticed a patrol car waiting in the weeds that night. I could have kept going and probably lost him, but I decided to play it cool. I slowed considerably, and waited for the car to catch up, which seemed to take an awfully long time. I pulled over when asked.
The officer was very formal, polite, asked if I was carrying any drugs, asked if he could inspect the vehicle..
Long story short, they were on the lookout for drug runners running drugs across the state of Florida that night, and I wasn't what/who they were looking for. He gave me a verbal warning to slow down, and let me go w/o a ticket.
It’s not a sport if it can’t kill you.
The owner’s manual for my 1969 Plymouth Roadrunner recommended “periods of full throttle acceleration” during break in. No problem!. I had the needle buried past 120mph on several occasions during the time I owned the car. Of course I wouldn’t dream of doing all that again, but how could a young guy do otherwise?
What we’re dealing with here is a complete lack of respect for the law!
Clicked at 156 in a 71 Duster.
Tossed in jail for the night.
At first appearance Judge Joe Dan Trottman,
having come of age with the model t, said,
“ah buiishit, case dismissed!”
State Trooper was livid!
A bit like flying, Duster was just floating
Had a 1973 Ford Maverick up to 120 mph and the front end began to weave back and forth. Was told later I was just a hair from going airborne. Scared me pretty badly AFTER the fact. Young and stupid.
