Default Close call after Hooters today

Right after we left Hooters,on Mowry right after Fremont Blvd a kid driving a brand new silver C6 pulls up to me starting the hole egging B/S. So hit it up to third,being mischieves and look up mirror I see Big Black car with white top,so slow down and this guy kept going with his C6.The LEO went zooming by me gets this guy,brand new C6 with no licence plate on it.Looks like his first ticket on C6.
I guess good karma saved me today,the cans of food I bought for the Apex event.

What's wierd is the C6 kept going, too pumped to look in his mirror until it was "too late"......

It is always better for the LEO to get the "other guy" rather then you. You should buy a lotto ticket tonight.

Glad I didn't follow you out, Shalen. I probably would have gone for it, too!! Weren't we just talking about getting speeding tickets at Hooters? We had good Karma today!

WOW!!!.... Had an experience myself, but the cop was cool. Right around Shasta City, I was cranking along at 85 -95 mph, having a blast on the I-5 mountain curves. A white car in the distance jumps on I-5 less than 1/4 mile in front of me. As I come up on it, I realize it is a big white Ford, with antennas. OOPS, it looks like a CHP. too late, I am well over the speed limit...
I back down to 70 and he hangs, so I end up driving right with him at 70 mph. YIKES!!!, I can see the CHP markings. S#$T, I am toast He stays with me for about 1/4 of a mile. All of a sudden he takes off and jumps way out in front of me, turns his lights off and pulls onto the far left shoulder... Long story short, he did nail someone. I got off at the first exit for a town called Weed to get some drive thru food(11:30 PM), and had to get back on I-5 to go two exits further, and he had nailed someone.
