or like those.carsr with blue running or red running lights. i once put a set of strobes in my 1G eclipse when i was 1 and i thought that cop was gonna me to Russian prison. he was pissed bc i was speeding up behind people flashing red and blue. didnt get a ticket but caught a verbal bestdown.. nowadays people would consider that abuse of power or whatever but it was a welcome advice which dixnt result in a ticket.

I almost got it bad one time in Louisville, Kentucky (stationed at Ft Knox). A friend had let me drive his car (98 Z28... this was in 99) and we lined up against a pretty healthy sounding LT1 TA at a light. We both hit it on the green and took off (we didnt see the cop in a McDonalds parking lot across the way), there was a friend of ours in a yellow 5.0 notch behind, he saw the cop haul *** out of the McDonalds parking lot and immediately did a u-turn. We get pulled over (I won) and the cop checks our records and then lets us go in what has to be the greatest blessing ever. He says, "It wouldnt be fair for me to give you 2 tickets and let your buddy in the Mustang get away. Also, I dont want to break your heart but that TA has a 383 in it."
To which my friend replies, "Well I dont want to break his heart, but this thing is stock and we just whooped his ***!!!" We talk cars for a minute and the cops lets us go.
As we are getting ready to pull away, the yellow Mustang reappears (with the owner of the Z28 that I am driving in tow) and the guy in the TA rats him out... "Theres the yellow Mustang coming up now!!! The cop jumps in his car, hits his lights and pulls the Mustang over. He gets out, walks up to my friend and says "That was a real bitch move by that other guy to rat you out.... So whatcha got in this thing?" They talk cars for about 15 minutes and then he went on his merry way. It was also the last time that we saw that TA out in the usual spot.
