Today I got pulled over by a sherrif because I got into it in 1st then hit 2nd and let off. You know cops always give you the speech and you just yes them to death then it goes right out the other ear. This cop was doing the same thing but he cut me a break and said it was my lucky day. He said when he was leaving, "Drive the car like a gentlemen".
I thought about that all day and hes right. When he said drive the car like a gentlemen hes not saying that Im in the wrong for building a car thats not legal on the road, he didnt bust my balls about no cats or rolling around on bald MT's, he just said that. The only cop that has ever said something like that to me, as if by driving around in race cars, we have a certain responsibility and a reputation to uphold. Almost like saying dont be like those other *******s. I dunno why it got to me but thats the only time a cop has said something to me that actually made me think.
