[ He said I've been doing this over 8 years, but I've never seen a dumb son of bisquit eater do over 130mph and put his damn signal light on every time he switched lanes at that speed.quote]
I hear my wife scolding me all the time to use my turn signal......even when she's not in the car!
....at any speed whether I'm on the road alone or not. Drives me crazy.

One at 110mph and the other was clocked at 147mph but he wrote the ticket for 130mph so he didn't have to take me to jail. Even though they can take you to jail over 100mph he said that it took him right at 6 miles to catch up to me but there was something strange about me. I said something stranger than doing over 130mph? He said I've been doing this over 8 years, but I've never seen a dumb son of bisquit eater do over 130mph and put his damn signal light on every time he switched lanes at that speed. We both laughed our butts for a while and he said "How in the hell do you give a person a ticket for reckless driving if they are signalling like that?" He said slow it down and gave me the ticket for 130mph then said by the way "I knew you were the guy that got the ticket on the Tx border. My eyes bucked because the ticket was on the front seat from about and hour prior but we were outside the car and I know he didn't see it because I put it under a cd. I said how did you kow about that? He said the sorry fu**s in Louisiana couldn't catch you and they were on the radio saying it was a WHITE PORSCHE LOOKING CAR BLURRING DOWN INTERSTATE 20.. He said lucky I didn't get pulled over in Louisiana because they were straight talking of locking my butt up.. LOL.......... Too funny... LEFT LANE IS FOR PASSING ONLY!!!!!!!!!!!!

160mph. Far from top end but with the new ECU will see what it can really do.

Silver Fox owes me a ride and I plan to collect.
Dan I'm only a wimpy NA but I'll give the dragon my best shot.
Unless Cathy finally admits she wants her own Xfire. It will be an SRT.

Be Careful even though the Xfire's are fast and smoothe the will bite you if the conditions tire pressure and tires aren't up to par..........
