three years ago, (before someone totaled my z). I was racing my 93 down 430 and about 155 i blew passed a cop and i didnt see it. So i just kept going and i get a call from my friend saying the cop is chasing me. So i keep my foot in it. I eventually let off after i had pegged out my fourth gear. He caught up to me and he threatened to tow me and all that good stuff. Turns out he got me at exactly 175 in a 65....no ticket...sweet talker

This was the only time I have ever "tried to see how fast my car will go" and the bastard was in the shadows cought me with "sationary radar" wtf is that?

I got pulled over for doing 140+ in a 65, but he only wrote the ticket for 85/65. I blew past a bike cop on the side of the road radaring people doing 150+, he never caught up... or even bothered to pull out on the highway.
In my youth I got pulled over about 5 or 6 times doing 100+, never got a ticket for more than 95. Always managed to get a conversation going and spend about 20 min bsing with the cops, always got them to write it off as a regular 'speeding' ticket and not 'reckless' or 'excessive speeding' (both misdemeaners here in CA). Even when I had a two car stop... lol...
Haven't been pulled over in about 5 years for moving violations, don't go over 100 anymore either, at least not very often.

I have a copdar, i never got tickets until one of those shitty days when i wasn't paying attention, apparently this bike cop followed me for two miles and clocked me at 61 in a 40 and saw me change lanes about 6 times without a blinker and all of this through a work zone (double fine), i didn't see him in my rearview mirror. Supposedly he had been tryin' to pull me over for a mile. i din't even know he was back there until he turned his sirens on and pulled next to me, oh well. he gave me two ticket, one for both offenses, cost me 550 all said and done. bastard. All of this happened in my 93 couger (w/ 308,xxx mi.) a week before i got my T/A
An acquantaince of mine said that he got pulled over for 162 in a 60 in his 02 SS, he tried to sweet talk the cop but it didn't work too well, he got a fine that exceeded $1200 and over 100 community service hours, oh yeah he got booked to. Now that's a bitch!

theres a guy in my town (small town of about 8,000) that has a turbo busa running 5.3's in the 1/8th. Anyways he was doing around 170 past our school, a cop saw him started to go after him, he kept on it and went all the way through town stop lights and all at this high rate of speed. Turns out he tried to pull onto a gravel road and laid his bike down. He got back on with a little road rash and the cops pulled him over, he lied and they had no proof it was him. He didn't get a ticket.

I go down the road, a Mitsubishi 3000GT VR4 blows past me like I am standing still, the cop goes down the road, pulls ME over, makes ME turn off my car and throw the keys out the window. I tell him that if it was me, I would be 4 miles ahead at around 155 and he gets pissed and writes me a ticket. Oh well.....

Mine wont technically count but I was doing a 125 in a 55....license would have been ripped up in a second but by the time the cop caught up to me I was doing 80 so they wrote the ticket out for that (but lectured me for going over 100 on a hwy and being stupid for a half hour lol)

I got nailed doing 108 on a 30mph straight country road thats 10 miles long. The cop was locking the gate to the Celery Bog and when I saw his car i hit my breaks hard he caught up to me a couple miles down the road and gave me a written warning since his radar wasn't on. He estimated I was doing 105..

120 in a 65. I was racing with a Passat W8. I got cought by a cop with a laser gun standing on an overpass. One mile later, there was about 10 police cars arresting almost everybody. it was a huge trap. Of course, the Passat and me got pulled over. I had to pay a 636$ fine and I lost 9 points (we have 15 points for 2 years in Quebec, Canada). I suppose that the Passat got the same fine. The cop, the Passat driver and me were pissed a lot. Fortunately, I was slowing down from 130 when I got cought. I think I would have lost my licence if they would have cought me at this speed...

I have an older customer that we installed an ATI ProCharger into his 192K mile original owner '94 Corvette. He got caught doing 135 mph and they hauled him to jail... Bob
