The cop let me go at 90mph. Like that would still help any. The speed limit was 55mph.

I thought they threw it out? I'm confused now....You got a ticket for 119, showed up to court, they threw it out and made you pay a 90 in a 55 ticket instead?

I was doing 119mph. On the ticket he put down 90mph. He never wrote my actual speed that I was going on the ticket. I do thank God for that.

What?!? Do you live in an area where they buy off the lot?? Around here, they all have the Hi-Po chip in them, and they are not to be trifled with. I see them turn and mash on it all the time, and they are just GONE. Wish I lived where you do with the slow@$$ cops. Hmm...must be nice...

Last time I went 103.5 in a 55 (1994) they locked me up. And that was after I slammed on the brakes. I had an Acura Legend with 140 on the speedo, and it would do all of that. (no governor, as if you didn't know)

I think the next time I ever hit triple digits, I am going to look for a front door.

it will do more than that, my grandmother has a '95 Legend and the guy in the Z28 behind me said we were doing at least 145
True. I didn't want to say anything since there are no numbers past 140. I pegged it, though.
