I was leaving the local cruise-in, a friend with a Yenko Camaro clone had just done a burnout so I had to show him up. I got after it pretty good, was sideways and really billowing the smoke. Just then a cop car rounds the corner!
$139 ticket!

wife is really pissed off at me now! She was sitting in the car telling me not to do it.
Boy was that uncomfortable while the cop was writing up the ticket. :chair

Hmmmmm, I've never felt it being uncomfortable. Oh wait, I'm usually in the "other" car! :whis

Sorry Craig, couldn't resist. If it helps, I haven't always been in the "other" car. I usually try to give warnings for this too....as opposed to our citations at $237!
 
Dang. Timing is everything. Where I live, they would probably impound the car and take me to jail for reckless driving.

Same here. You would think that would stop me from doing it. :whis
 
I love the language on the ticket, "burnout," lol! However, only "several feet" of burnt rubber? For shame; time for a power adder.
 
Your luck to get the only non gear head cop in town!

If it were me I would have said good job, let's not do that again, hah?

I was pulled over once because the cop just wanted to look at the car. He did warm me to not dump the clutch so much.

I'm not laughing









OK, I'm laughing really hard. Tell Tara you're sooo mad about, you're going to sell the car. Sell it hard and then she'll say no and forgive you.
 
Sometimes it's too hard to resist temptation. You did well and you have the proof to frame. I give you the :thum
 
I think my wife was more mad because she was embarrassed. Everyone knows who the car belongs to. She will hear about it from everyone! We do our cruise-in every month, I'm thinking I will ride my bicycle to the next one and park it with the other cars and and sit in my lawn chair and my ticket!

Just like the po-po to come ruin all the fun.

Yeah, it was probably some rookie cop flexing his muscles. Big headed, egotistic putzes.
 
So....the next "burnout" needs to be done from a slow roll....that way you leave the parked position properly and set the line lock so there are only spots or rubber on the street....not several feet.....

My wife promises to laugh hard when I get a ticket for playing around in the car or truck....
 
I was saying the same to my wife a couple years ago when we were on a bike vacation...

Doesn't this cruise nice at 120mph? Then I saw the cop. DoooooH
Only cost $800 and traffic school...knocked down to a seatbelt violation...yeah on a motorcycle.
