    Well I guess you didnt read his previous reply that stated this, "Now can you please explain to me what is reckless about going 125mph on a straight interstate way on dry road, clear weather with no traffic in a car with CCBs and superior handling to most other vehicles on the road, when the road is zoned for worst case scenarios [18 wheeler, wet road, night]. Yes I will sell my cars and take the bus. Thanks for the tip, I don't know what I would have done without your infinite source of wisdom."

    I understand that driving 100+ mph could take an innocent life ,a monkey could figure that out. However I don't mind when people are doing it on a road where no one is around to harm, but It's a different story when the drive is hitting those speeds in the broad daylight with innocent civilians on the road weaving in and out of traffic.

    I have a great busted story ..but no pics...
    A couple of weeks ago I was entering an on ramp for a highway ... when a city cop chased me down and pulled me over (on the very long on ramp) He asked me why I was going so fast.. I said "I wasn't" I asked him what was the real reason he pulled me over because I wasn't speeding.... he goes on to tell me he never pulled over a Ferrari and he wanted to check it out.. he continued to ask me what I do for a living bla bla bla... now the best part is he hands me back my paperwork and asks me to let it go a bit .... I said you want me to let it go??? he said yea.. I want to see what this thing can do :)) I don't have to be told twice... I ran it through the gears.. and hit more than 200 kmh by the next exit .... hey I had permission.
    (in ontario they take your car away at 150kmh) btw ... no traffic and dry roads :)

    Wasn't that great?! Very cool :cool: Back in April I had a similar experience, only we actually raced to ~120m. I thought I might be in for some entrapment :eek:

    Would anyone believe me if I told you, that the guy in the picture with the black and white designed Gallardo, is the CEO of Lamborghini Miami? His name is Brett David. I saw a video that documents him taking over his fathers business and then later on was supposed to spawn into a mini internet tv series. But I guess it didn't fare too well with the audience. If anyone wants to know more about him, let me know and I'll post the link in this thread. Its a small world after all.

    Both. First he handed me the ticket, then went on about how to pay (if you can't pay it now write a letter, yada, yada). I tried to explain that the car loses value when non-original parts are put on the car. He suggested drilling two holes in the bumper! When I explained that would cost me $$ in value loss he answered I'll need to do something or I will keep getting fined. This is my first ticket in 3 years of ownership. I was given a warning twice.

    22 speedtraps in 1.8 years?!
