As I start to get close to him, he turns on the red and blues and goes screaming down an off ramp. he obviously had bigger fish to fry than a stupid 16 year old. I drove straight home and parked the car still scared crapless.
My father had a Buick Wildcat with the 455, 4 barrel when I was a teenager that I used to street race with all the time. Torqued the motor off the mounts three times before he figured out it wasn't something wrong with the car. LOL the good old days.

HAHA! We luckily never had issues with motor mounts, but dad said the damn car goes through rear tires like crazy. He said it must be because it was heavy

That was a different time. when we got caught drinking, the cops made us dump our beer out in the street in front of everyone else cruising the BLVD. Massively embarrassing. They told us to go straight home and if they saw us again that night, we were going to jail.

Back in 2007, I was heading towards one of my restaurants that's in Prince William County (I live in Fairfax County). In 2007 I still had my MONSTER 2005 S55 AMG, anyways I'm driving on PW parkway going about 60mph in a 45mp zone minding my business. While I'm driving I notice a 2000-2003 Yellow Corvette Z06 getting closer and closer. Before he got about 3-4 car lengths behind me I gun it. At this point were going about 105mph and I held the lead till we finally caught up to traffic at a red light. Next thing you know the tinted window on the corvette goes down! I look over and there's a guy holding his badge going crazy "Are you f**king serious" "you could of killed someone" In my mind I am thinking great now I'm going to get a ticket! He Continues to say that it's my lucky day that he was off duty and there's not much he can do. He followed me all the way to my store to make sure I don't drive "Aggressively"!

LOL worst red light ever took forever. The whole time while he's yelling at the top of his lungs I'm trying so hard not to laugh haha! I just don't understand how he's off duty and he's driving 100+mph no one can say anything to him.!

PS- That Corvette didn't have a chance against my S55 AMG!!!!
