Now I've seen everything... Just a few minutes ago, I ran across the street to grab a quick sub, then headed back to work. As I approached the street, I heard the sweet sound of a hi-performance V8 coming up through the gears (far from foot-to-floor, but was definitely "workin")! I turn to look and its a real nice custom Chevy Trailblazer with a V8 conversion on 18" wheels. Very professionally built. About two seconds later, I hear the "swishhhh" of another car coming after him... Copper! Well I was rather curious what the problem was and decided to walk over to the gas station they both pulled in to. The driver came in to pay for his gas while the LEO ran his info in the cruiser. I asked him what law she alleged he broke. I was floored when he said, "Racing!!!". I thought he was joking. I quick wrote down my name and number and told him to call me if he needed a witness to help his defense, LOL. I waited a few more minutes and saw the officer handing back his ID, but no ticket... phew! As she walked back to her cruiser, I sauntered up and explained that I plan on getting my old GTO back on the road soon and was concerned about what brought about this "racing" allegation. She explained that it was his acceleration that was defined as a "stunt". I told her I was under the impression that you had to spin (or attempt to spin) the tires to fall in to that category. She said, "No. Just rapid acceleration is enough to qualify as a stunt". Well I just Googled like crazy and still haven't found where acceleration alone is considered a "stunt". OK Bear, it's your time to shine. Educate me quick before I'm on the hook! Our local paper is used to my controversial letters-to-the-editor and I'm about to put pen to paper once again, hehe. (Please God, bring back the 80's. The 00's suck!)
