Lousy Focus
A friend of mine in Focus ZX3 hatchback is sitting at a light with me in the industrial zone. The speed limit there is 35, and cops cover that area, so I watch myself going down there. Anyway, the light turns green, and I drive normally through the light, but I hear the Focus start roaring its engine. She speeds ahead of me. There is no way I am gonna let this happen. I floor it, and catch up to her in no time. I could have held the gas down and smoked her, but I looked at my speedometer, and decided to let off. I was going way to fast down that road, but I knew, and she knew, I would have beat her.

Hee hee. 
.. you're not speeding until you're caught 
.. besides.. race rice.. a lot of the cops I dealt with will always go after them first ( do you blame them 
).. I know through experience.. that'* why blend into a crowd of rice if the cops comes to bust you up... even though my car sticks out.. they think... nah... they look like nice sunday church people driving a family sleeper.. ha ha ha.. 
Yes Dad and Mom... the speed limit is the speed limit... not what I thought of as just a suggestion for minimum traffic flow speed...
