So I was coming home from the farewell meet tonight, and I was gettin a little throttle happy. I pulled up to this yellow mitsu lancer ralliart and rev up, but they looked a little nervous. Soon as the light turns green we crawl off the line and I stay with him real slow till my 20 punch, then I take off like I just stole my own car. When I reached the next light, I see him behind me, and red/blue lights behind him and I knew I had been shot down. Cop pulls us both over and asks if we were racing. I told him honestly, I didn't consider it much of a race since we didn't launch and it was really not much competition anyway, I just like to drive spirited. Anyway, I got threatened with a 10-point racing citation and a 2-point muffler citation (not sure if that means its too loud or that its not IM/DOT legal). After explaining the offenses to me, he said goodbye and took off. :banana:

I'm sure the next time I get pulled over, things won't be so pretty. I've probably got a warning in the computer.

Anyway, just thought I'd share my near-death experience (which actually happened when i told my wife about it).

Watch for cops, keep safe, don't race, and i'm a very bad person. :devil:

It was still a waste of gas

Thats when the police band would have come in handy.

well you would have heard it after they started chasing you, a radar detector would give you somewhat an idea if they're around - before you start racing ;)

I had it on. His radar must have been off because my alert never sounded.

wow you fbx crew must like blue! lol

yeah, he also has to have the radar on to be able to detect it...

or using lidar, which is what most places use now anyway

you got lucky with that warning!
