Even if you outrun the cops that doesn't mean he can't take down your license plate number. He'll get you one way or another.

I was with a friend the other night and he has a Four Door GSR Integra with Hiper exhaust and some other mods.. Its a pretty quick car... well anyways a celicas wants to race us so we both punch it ( my friend driving...my S2K was quietly resting at home) and of course were smoking this Celica... so as we cross the interestion at 120 mph! a cop is watching about to make a left behind us... the cop peels out and comes after us.. i look over at my friend and itstead of slamming on the brakes he mashes the pedal in and slams on the brake arounda turn.. then punches it again.. he made a couple of turns in and out of parking lots and by the time he was finished the cop wa sno where to be found... my hands were wrapped around teh "Oh Shit Bars" the whole time.. very scary experience.

That's one thing about me. I just have to race everyone. Big ego . Nevertheless, I have to outgrow this little problem. Latez!

How about this being moved to street encounters?

Surely you don't mean to imply that the patrolman was wrong to give you a ticket, when you were racing on public streets? If one doesn't deserve a ticket for racing on public streets, should citations EVER be given? If so for what infraction? You imply that the cop should have been stopping and lecturing others "Instead of lecturing me, lecture those other little
kids who races everyday"- how is he supposed to know you aren't one of those?

Ah, BTW, how is the engine breakin?

mouthing off to a cop who's probably been working all day and possibly night chasing around kids who race is the fastest way to get your ass in jail and your car inpounded and put up for auction.

do the smart thing and kiss ass...maybe he'll go easy on you maybe he won't but in court at least the tape will make you out to be a nice guy and not a d*ckhead.

This was also the 2nd day since I'd bought the car.
This is the part I don't understand... (actually, I don't understand any of it, but that stood out).

Why in the world would you race a 2 day old S2k? You know you have to break in the engine for the first 600 miles, right (shouldn't exceed 6,000 RPMs)?

First of all, the police officer was the one being a jackass. To all of you guys who are saying that this incident was kinda stupid, I agree with you all but it all happen in the heat of the moment. Since I didn't have a tag yet, I should've dust that bastard. MAYBE NOT
