Fred's car is on jack stands and in pieces getting top secret suspension installed as you can check in his galler.. Well there's that and other things we're doing to get it ready for the shoot out
I can vouch for that, your rear bumper was off and your m@#%$&* pump was showing.

Fred,
I think that was my car. I saw a silver tt with lowered suspension (otherwise seemingly stock) on 101 near San Mateo at around 10. I followed him and then he started accelerating, I think we got upto 120 at one point. Then we saw the cop and slowed down. After a while he took the exit and I continued my way home.
Sad thing was that I was later pulled over by a cop. He said he followed us for 5 minutes and saw what me and your friend did. I got a ticket and I think your friend got away.

YEP it was you Lawrence then. I will tell my friend it was you. He said that you guys did pass a cop and that he saw him and let him go. He thinks the cop knew him thats why he let him go. And my friend was telling me more like 150 ;-)

I hope the ticket wasn't too much, sorry to hear about that.

PM me if you want so I can tell you who it was.

Alex,
that is my second speeding ticket in a year. the officer put down 80mph+ on the ticket but actually I was doing way more than that. I guess i wasn't very unlucky after all.

Ah ****e you got a ticket I didn't realize... Well you gotta watch out. Did you have the V1 hooked up or was it instant-on stuff?

Sorry man, that sucks about the ticket

when I was pulled over there were actually 2 CHP cars at the scene. I heard one officer telling the other one your friend took the exit earlier. is that why he got lucky??
I don't know how much the ticket will be. I am actually more concerned about the points that will be deducted cause my last speeding ticket was in march. well I guess I just have to be very careful right now especially at night, there is no way you can see very far when it is dark outside.

i will put you in touch with my friend so you can share the name of the officer who cited you. Maybe he knows him and could help you out. You know that if you decide to find this in court and the officer does not show up, then your ticket is void.

so email me the officers info.

thanks,
fred

Lawrence, I was the guy in the other car. I'm really sorry to hear that you got a ticket. Please let me know the name of the officer and I'll see what I can do. You can send a copy of the ticket to Fred and he will get it to me. Once again i'm really sorry to have been the one who caused you your ticket. It's all George's and Alex's fault, they made my car to fast and our speed was well over the 120 Mark. Please send copy of ticket to Fred ASAP.
