Most cops I meet are cool like that, the ones who are not I just play nice then explain myself to a judge.

What did you do? Drop to 3rd, punch it, and hit everyone with the sonic boom? It's my favorite maneuver.

Dropping to 3rd at highway speed with a Rev match and punching it is an awesome sound! I didn't have much of a sonic boom back then, no money for mods! I was in Montgomery AL headed for Pensacola in a construction zone. I only dropped 1(should have dropped down 2

)

And so they should be held accountable. Actions like this... are asking for trouble... Anyone licensed to carry and pulls this move... does not deserve to have a carry permit.

He / They / Whoever they were .. were probably just admiring the car.. The looks and stares, we can handle with a waive and a thumbs-up, a smile or a nod... The following turn for turn will be handled differently. WOT

I do it in a ZL1, especially my last one, and if you keep an eye on people in the car next to you for just a second as you pass they practically jump out of their own seats.

On day two of owning my 1LE my wife and I on a small cruise. I noticed a vett following me thru a couple of turns. I drove thru the hood and he followed from a distance. My wife was a little concerned but i was quite pleased.

Long story short, he followed me home and hopped out and was oogling and loving my car. Come to find out he is a near neighbor and also a track trainer at Miller. He invited me out for some runs but i told him the car isnt broken in yet.

Made a friend, and made me smile.
