don't try this at home.
i *completely* spaced out. going from 505 onto 5. it's central valley boredom, completely empty freeway in the middle of flat nothingness. i didn't pay attention to my speed and was doing what i thought was just casual cruising. i see the cop sitting on the other side of the freeway on an offramp and i look down on my tach, 4200 rpm, oh shit, that's gotta be too fast. 15 minutes later he catched up to me and pulls me over. had me clocked at 96 (!) ... i got lucky, the cop turned out to be a car nut. he aksed if i was going up to the raceway. so we talked cars for some 15 minutes or so. he wrote me up for 80, which is the minimum he could do (short of letting me go free) ... so here's to the cop on I5, whatever your name is, i owe you a cold one!

I did well over a hundred mph from Palo Alto down to Morgan Hill and back again today with no attention from the cops whatsoever. Powered by an aircooled flat 4 no less.
