The only time I ever have been stopped was in the first 15 miles.. just had to take a good buddy for a spin the first dry night after she was delivered. Car was not even registered and we kept the speed down but the cop (state patrol) was hanging out near a school and heard us go by
He was so amazed by the car and her brand new condition that he just gave the usual mumbling "get it registered asap" stuff and let us go.. one of the good guys. I now have turbo specialties baffles (there's a thread here with the install pics, if you use that search term) and she is "quiet" (for a cobra with SS sidepipes) unless I stomp on the loud pedal.
Yesterday some young guy with a souped-up VW bug made a point to catch up to me at a light and rev his motor.. I basically ignored him.. (like a rottweiler ignoring a poodle
) he turned left at the light and I remained, but after he left the road construction crew nearby was staring at my car with looks like "you shoulda' showed him who was boss"
So I revved my motor just a bit and they broke into grins.. one guy said "That sounds a LOT better"
