I did something like that Friday night. Some young 16 year olds were picking a race with me with their ugly 89 civic and del slow. Well, to make things short I dusted them. So when we were at a light I heard a loudspeaker behind me say, "At the green light, you 3 cars will pull over to the gas station." I was like, "Oh Sh!t." Then I thought to myself that the police car will no matter what go to the gas station since the kids behind were for sure pulling over there. So I decided to just drive slowly and ignore the cop. I drove and past the gas station and didn't see no blue and red lights after me. My excuse if I was caught was that I thought he was talking to the kids next to me since they were "harrassing" me. Lucky me, huh? Anyways, I have got to slow the hell down on Friday and Saturday nights. Those are the only nights cops suddenly want a piece of me. Latez!

Being from the UK we may have a different culture - But you guys have guns!

I would suggest that deliverately antagonsing the police with a street race is one of the dumbest and quickest ways to lose your licence.

I have had the car 2 days and now I have a big fine to pay, public transport to take, and no way of driving the S2000.

If I was that cop and when I finished my shift got back into my old ford each night you would be my dream. A complete fool in a flash new car just begging to have it taken off him.

Your brother on the phone - Well that would just make me want to make you both suffer all the more.

Next time I suggest the best way to avoid the ticket is to let the little kids in their cars go right on by and stop waving yuor genitals about in-front of the Police.

You need your hands on the wheel not bewteen your legs...holding your brains.

Kind Regards,
Sam.

seeing that my s2k doesn't even have plates yet, I was wondering if I'd punch it right as the cop approached my vehicle walking. Then on second thought, I realized I don't want to be on the 8 o'clock news.

No matter how fast your car, you can't outrun the radio.

Smart, real smart.
Should you have really bought that S2000 or saved your money for future lawyer fees.

Hoped you learned a lesson
