About 15 years ago I was driving my 1970 Mach 1 with a 351c and auto. I left a stop sign "aggressively" and chirped second gear. Immediately, lights behind me. Demonstration of power, 40 in a 25, and careless driving.
" I just got this car and it has some kind of shift kit in the tranny," I stammered nervously, "I really didn't mean to drive like a crazy person, i'm just not used to the car, yet."
"You bought it, you are responsible. Why did you buy a car that you can't handle?"
"I've always wanted one of these since high school. It's really a great car and I'm an excellent driver with no violations. I'll master it."
I got a warning and some friendly advice to not do that again in his patrol area. Also, told me if I decided to sell it, he would be interested. Car guys, even cops, understand other car guys.
