Default street race almost went bad

On the way home from diesel drag races in Dallas today some 03 or 04 dodge keep tryin to get me to race. I didn't at first cause I don't want a damn ticket. Well I gave in finally and we were running neck and neck at 110 then we pass a cop. He got both of us and sobriety tested me I got a WARNING. I gotta buy a lotto ticket.

He sobriety tested you,because if he said to the judge you were going 110+ in a 7,000 pound truck the judge would have looked at him and threw him in the slammer. Buy a lotto ticket.

You got lucky,

However, not trying to be mean, but in the future, just smile and wave, its way less likely to get someone killed then having a drag race at that speed on public roads, that's dangerous as I'm sure you know. You do need to go buy that lotto ticket as you got lucky twice, 1 no ticket, 2, no one got hurt. Keep in mind most truck tires are not rated for much over 100 mph and if one would come apart, well, i dont even want to think about that.

Anyway, enough playing daddy. Enjoy.
