A little story about speeding tickets.
We will start with me..
165 mph on 805 in San Diego Ca.
3am.
CHP got me with Radar from bridge.
Took 7 miles flat out in a Mustang HO to catch me. Lucky I slowed down
I did not realize I was busted until he flipped the lights on 7 miles away from the bridge. I saw this car come up on me at about 150 mph. I though what the hell.. And then bingo lights..
Result:
Car impounded.
Tinted window ticket.
an argument.
Matching bracelets.
Jail
Had to pay my own bond
ect, ect....
I have never done this kind of thing since
I was doing an article for Car and Driver on the fastest recorded time from San Diego to PhX Az. This was my second atempt. I have the official record for my route with the first time. But after learning a shortcut that would shave another 15 minutes off I had to try again. The first time I ran WOT the entire way without getting a single ticket.
My official time:
411 miles in 3 hours 42 minutes. From downtown San diego to the deck park tunnel in PHZ Az.
This included 3 stops for fuel. The stops where made as fast as I could.
I burned up an almost brand new set of Dunlops in 411 miles. I had cords showing on the fronts. and blisters on the back. I had to purchase a new set before I could drive home.
5th gear from that day forward had a slight whine to it. I maintained 6000 rpm in 5th gear for most the time.
I know.. I know... I was a little younger and stupid... I do not do things like this anymore. I was in a safe car and it all my driving was done at night. Due to the time of the year there was very little traffic. I was not the only one in the game either. Several other people tried but did not get the time I did.
Looking back on this I realize exactly how dangerous it was. Its funny how a few years can change a persons views on subjects like this. I know go to the race track to speed. That way if I crash I hopefully will not kill someone.
