Crazy Shit

Yeah a good thing Louisiana plate looks almost like a California plate and he felt like a moron and let you go. On the bright side you have the all time record for speed down Clark Avenue. I doubt anyone's gone over 100 mph. You were doing at least 140. If the cop hadn't red lighted you, you might have even hit 2nd gear. Crazy fucker.
The comment above from Dave Gastoni is in reference to a day back in 2010 when Don Johnson on his 502, Dave Gastoni on his 572, and me on Berzerker were sitting side by side at a redlight on scenic Clark Ave, no cars in front, we were first out the gate when the light would turn green. Dave leans over to me and says “on green, show us what Berzerker can do”. Problem was none of us noticed the fully marked police car sitting directly behind us at the red light light!!
When the light turned, I opened up Berzerker in what was probably an impressive scene for all those bystanders!!
Imagine my shock when getting out of the throttle and seeing flashing cop lights in my rear view mirror!! I endured a 10 minute scream fest from that cop who was almost immediately backed up by several more squad cars. Once the cop finally calmed down and we began chatting, he turned out to be pretty cool. No arrest, no tow away, no bike crushed as is law for drag racing on street, not even a speeding ticket!!
Dave Gastoni lmfao. Ain’t life grand?
Its stories like that when told.........people say bullshit, no way that that’s true. I’ve done a lot of crazy shit in my lifetime and miraculously survived them all without so much as a scratch; recon my day is coming.
True Story: the SWAT team set up a road block just for me and my friends traveling in a van on a countryside backroad , as I rounded a curve imagine my surprise to see a full scale military style roadblock and 8 machine guns pointed at me and more SWAT guys piling in from behind with even more machine guns pointing at us; all was mistaken identity, they thought I was a Terrorist!! I guess the plastic , life sized toy replica uzi sitting on the dashboard must have tipped them off?? Lol even my wife says bullshit, but it’s true. We all, to include the SWAT team had a huge laugh once all clear given.
Just thought I’d share, might provide a laugh or two.
