Fastest speeding ticket?
#63
95 in a 65 in Selma Texas going north on I-35.
Other details: 2001 Z28 light mods, 1130 at night. Very light traffic.
Story:
Some idiot was trying to race me or get me to take off or something of that nature and had actually cut me off fairly close twice. So on the second time he cut me off I shot from the far right lane (slow lane) to the far left lane (fast lane - 4 lanes of traffic) with my foot on the floor. About the time I'm just about to crest a hill I back out of it and put the car in neutral. As soon as I top the hill there is one of Selma's finest sitting on the side of the road. I hit the brakes a bit hard and fishtail a bit and then turn on my blinker and exit the next exit and pull over in a little mexican returant next to HEB in Schertz and wait for him to catch up. By the time he rolls up behind me I have the car turned off, window down, interior light on, hand out the window with my license and insurance. LOL
The cop walks up to my car laughing and asks if I knew how fast I was going. I told him that I never looked down. (bullshit I hit the middle of that hill clicking over 135 EASY) He said he clocked me at 95. I told him the story of the other car and asked if I could get a warning and that I would go straight home and think about my actions. He laughed again and said it was a bit too fast for a warning. He came back and gave me a ticket and thanked me for not running and being so polite.
On the ticket that he wrote he showed that I had made a 45 degree angle of a lane change with a little diagram. He also mentioned that he thought I was going faster than 95 since he saw the fishtail too.
I took it to court a few days later and told the judge the same story, with the cop standing by the bench laughing, and the judge looked at me and asked if I could pay $175 today. I told him yes and he said $175 and 90 days probation.
Not too bad.

Initially it was a 130 in a 65 ,but since I was heading back to base for a short notice deployment I got off with a 95 in a 65. He said I had to go to court, but I just paid the ticket $247 and jumped on a jet to cross the water! He threatened me with everything in the book to include taking my wife to jail, impounding my car, and throwing my blue pit in the pound! What a douche bag cop!

20 in a 15. Does that make me a badass?
Shouldn't a thread about the fastest speeding ticket be locked? Not trying to be a dick but this sounds like a ls1tech.com liability to me.

Craziest true story ever! On buckner i was racing a camaro at 2:30 in the morning clocked at 124 drunk than a skunk and my marine buddy was with me. Cop asked for my license and insurance but I said all I have is my military id. Gave it to him and he walked around and told my buddy to get out. He was so drunk that when he got out he stumbled into the cop and the cop hemmed him up and threw him on my car and cuffed him. Took his wallet out and saw his VA card then threw the wallet in the seat. He then uncuffed him walked to his car and said "you guys are my ******* soldiers and go straight home!" I was jaw dropped, had already called my brother to tell him to get me a lawyer in the morning cause I'm about to get a dwi. Luckiest **** in the world! Whoo!

Well I'm boring but was driving to Waco from El Paso and was in some small town. I got up to 90mph when my overspeed went off. I coasted up a hill and wouldn't you know it a cop passed the other direction. I look back and before he could do a u-turn I pulled over and waited for him. He gave me a warning but not before asking me how much money I put into my car. Said he liked it and told me to slow down. I'm usually a dick but decided to be nice this time and it helped.
