The red lights behind me!

Tazwell County crested the hill right when I started hitting breaks. He clocked me at 91 in a 55. I thought I was alone on Manito Black top. Yesterday the judge told me I was 4 under going to jail for a year. Anything over 40 of the speed limit will put you there. He said most people dont know that. He said I was lucky and fined me $300 with probation for 90 days. That was a piece of cake, going home to the wife was not. I went out to the garage put it up on jacks for the winter.

That's a bummer, how fast were you going before you got on the brakes?

105 and it was ready for more. Next time it will be on a track! Central Street Scene rents the track at Cordova IL.

105, I was gonna say I was proud of you, but that sounds irresponsible.
Sorry.

105? I also was going to say I was proud too, but you should have had it much higher than that. That sounds like not enough throttle. Sorry.

I did that once, got a heafty ticket in my C5 and parked the car for a month or so. Figured it was a way to teach me responsibility...

For all the preachers, 105 isnt that bad. not much more dangerous than 70. These cars can take 105 no sweat... Not that I reccomend breaking the law.
