Fastest You've Ever Driven

[KurtSF]

Me behind the wheel, no more than 110 or so. In the passenger seat more like 150.

Not my story, but it was a friend in highschool. He had a tricked out Kawasaki (RX-11 or something like that), got caught by the fuzz doing over 100, didn't feel like a ticket so hit hit the gas and was soon doing 180. Cops were loooong gone.

That's when the helicopter showed up and pulled him over. The cop in the helicopter gave him a ticket for 100 in a 55, which was a HUGE break because the big penalties (like automatic loss of license) come into play at double the speed limit (110 for the math challenged), and that's not mentioning the fact that he was running from cops.

Why was the heli-cop so generous? He said he had the same bike.

OK, I didn't see it happen, but I was friends with the guy and he swore it was true.
