Last night on my way home around 11pm, light-no traffic on the road's ,& a long straight away coming up, so I hunker down & hit the gas did ~120 mph for about 2-mile's then I start to come up on 2 car's in front of me, I quickly slow down to 60mph (the speed limit)  first car closet to me was a pick-up truck & in front of him was the trooper (which I could not see), trooper slow's & pull's over onto the median to let both the truck & me pass, then directly tail's me to a stop light where I make a left & he kept going straight.

Man was I lucky, I guess they cannot "radar" anybody from the rear  otherwise he wouldve got me for doing 120 or better ?

true you lucked out, but not true about direction of radar. the kustom radar can do same direction radar in front of him or behind him, but the thing about the radar is it will pick up the largest object 1st. it picked up the trucks speed but not yours. the officer saw you exceeding the speed limit but didnt have you on radar so he really couldnt do a whole lot. if he really really wanted to get you for something it wouldve been for too fast for conditions or something depending on what state your in. lucky indeed.

the biggest question is why did you post this in the roadracing section?

I was racing the road hence the term "road racing"
Where would you place it then in the drag or stunter's section ? Come on lighten up fast finger's.

I agree. Posting it in this section seems correct. Road Racing is considered racing any terrain that you are on. Just a lil open minded perspective here, but still none the less a lil crazy. I think the fastest I got my bike up to so far was about 80, but then again I've only had it for a week and only had my license for 3 weeks. LOL

It's carpe, not capre.  Your quote means "the day smells bad" instead of "seize the day" when you spell it wrong.

bckwld360's signature.  In latin capre is also a word.  It changes the meaning of the quote considerably, LOL.

Troopers generally care about real criminals...drunks, drug smugglers, etc.

They are not like the local PD, out to generate revenue so the mayor can have his coke-whores.

State troopers do generate revenue for the state and have quotas to meet, hence the speed traps on highways at the end of some months. The difference between local pd and troopers is that troopers have stricter standards.
