In my 1998 Cobra Roush about 20 miles of four or five lane lightly traveled highway in northern Cali I get challenged by an M5 beemer. We "play" all the way from Cupertino to San Bruno. My stang's needle was burried at times. As I got to the exit first :-D I wait for the red light when all of a sudden a CHP does all he can to not slam into me as the intersection is kind of blind off the freeway. I'm like "Crap! Who's he after?" Next thing I know, he's screeming at me to get out of the car. He claimed that the two of us blew past him at over 160mph. I never saw him. He asked three or four times how fast I was going. I maintained that I did not know. As I wait for him to run my license, a helicopter is obviuosly looking for someone as I overhear Chipper's radio that they caught the beemer. Turns out that Duder with a badge working with me was in high speed persuit after us for over 10 minutes but never caught up. So... I get a ticket for 99+ in a 65 which I believe is an infraction. Next I get the summons and request to calendar my hearing as far out as possible - I get 5+ months. A week before the date, I call and re-calandar for as far out as possible - I get another 4 months. BUT, two weeks later, I received a dismissal notice in the mail. All charges dropped. I often wonder if beemer boy was so lucky.
