almost got my first speeding ticket in the camaro just now...i was doing about 100 on route 66 in gallup where the speed limit was 55 i believe and it was an undercover sheriff that followed me for about 15 minutes after that in a ford f250 and then pulled me over and lectured me and tried to scare the **** out of me (lol and i think it worked)...no ticket though - he said he could have thrown me in jail for the weekend and then asked what my name was and when i told him he said he knows my family very well and just told me that "we don't need that hot rodding **** around here" and let me go...i don't think he would have been so nice (well....he wasn't really nice - but he did let me go) if i had tried to argue with him about it...i just said yes sir i was being very stupid sir....lol very close call

lesson learned....watch out guys - undercover cops are everywhere so lets keep our speeding limited to our track days =]

and p.s. - don't try to fight with cops...just admit that you were being stupid and that's the best chance you'll have at getting off

Spoken like a veteran. Well done and I totally agree.

I still let loose every once in a while but find it easier and easier to just say no to getting Loco like I was when we were young.

Congrats on the free weekend you are about to receive.

Now show up to SMS to make up for it.

You are a bad man. Very, very bad man, Jerry.

Cops and their lectures. How silly! Especially Gallup, I don't think they even have a jail there lol.

rharp · 05-21-2010, 07:31 PM

I have found if you agree and say yes sir, most of the time they will be cool. I'm 42 years old been pulled over I don't know how many times and have gotten off every time. I've gotten several verball warnings and a half dozen or so written ones. Being nice instead of a d!ck head keeps the wallet fat. Haven't been pulled over in the camaro yet, but give me time!!!!!!!! I might be old but I'm young at heart !!

following you @ 100 in an F250? kudos to him.
as fun as it was on the way to the Fest keeping up with y'all, i wouldn't wanna do that in my truck again - let alone a heavier one that handles way worse
