Default 4 wide racing on interstate...

ok so last night at about 2 am me and a few friends were out.

it was my 02 SS M6, 02 GT, 98 Z28 B4C, 98 Z28 M6 and we did a 4 way role on the interstate cause there was no traffic around. the middle car (the mustang) honked and we went. as soon as we kicked it me and the 98 Z28 jumped out front and the B4C was not far behind and then the GT behind him. my radar started going freakin crazy i looked in my rear view mirror and saw cars haulin *** towards us. i dove off the nearest exit and they kept going i flashed my lights and everything at them and they didnt see. i even tried calling them but it was too late we get to where we were going and both 98's and the GT got impounded and they all 3 got arrested for illegal drag racing and a number of other things. i slid up in the back of the parking lot and came up and asked a cop what was going on and he told me what i already knew so then i went to the police station to see what was gonna happen. there parents were pissed as f*ck (ofcourse) but i didnt get anything they clocked the 98 M6 at 169mph, the 98 B4C at 164mph, & the GT at 148mph they have to wait until monday to talk to the judge about getting there cars back and whats going to happen... talk about im a lucky S.O.B.

No personal offense intended.

mine wasnt going as fast as them i was only at 150 then i let off cause i knew them lights behind me were cops and i shot down the next exit. they passed me and kept going and didnt let up. it was stupid and normally i wouldnt do it but i dont know i just did. no one was on the interstate actually it was weird there was not a single car going down it or up it which i have never seen before. anyways thats going to slow me down...

Not that it would of mattered, but no on invested in an escort or valentine one radar in those other cars?

I'm with the guys with the speed "limits," after a 115mph I start thinking about my last brake job.

150+ they have to call up several miles up the road just to give them a chance and cutting you off.they cant follow at those speeds and if they radio a couple miles it wont matter cause your already there

HAHAHA that sucks!!! I've done a few runs up to 160+ in the old car. Last time i went 140+ i got caught! Flew bye a cop w/ someone pulled over and he radioed ahead, of course i pulled over. I was soooooooo lucky there was no radar gun pointed at me, all they could write me up for was 105+. I got to drive away in my car with a ticket and keep my liscence, but i had to pay $1800!!! Insurance only went up $10/mo.

Forgot to mention beltronics. Great radar.

You got lucky, but in someways, you were more prepared then the rest of your friends. At least now they all have proof who traps the lowest on the interstate.

Yar make sure your buddies invest in a radar detector after they pay off all their fines. I wouldn't even get on the freeway without mine it has saved me so many times. Even from a for sure DUI, that right there paid for it 6x over.

I did about 165 on my bike and that was scary enough. The most I've ever gone in my car is only like 125...I just have no desire to go that quick. I need to hit the strip to get some 110+ traps legally.
