that's a valid ticket in Ohio.. "excessive display of power" revving up, doing burnouts, basically broad enough to cover anything remotely aggressive, they really covered their bases on that one. 6 points out of your maximum 12, right up there with drag racing and doing 200mph on the freeways

I would tell the judge you were cleaning out the carburetor because you have been having problems with the truck...

Hey,

I would lay on a story about how all of a sudden you thought you had a case of dead pedal as it would not get up to the speed limit. So then you threw it in neutral and rev'ed it a couple times to make sure it was good to go. After that you got home and did a reset on the apps..... I would go that route.

I would pay a lawyer a lot of money and say whatever he told me to say, which would probably be nothing.
