Exclamation Yellow Vette!

So far, he best radar detector I have seen for my Cobra, was the yellow Corvette, I let challange me to a race as we both got onto the freeway. He was behind me as the light changed and we could enter the on ramp.

As this was a freeway on ramp light and there was no chance of any cross traffic, I hit it pretty hard and had a good reaction time. I think I supprised the Vette and really left him in the dust. By the time I hit 65mph and was merging on to the freeway, he had caught up and passed me doing about 80 going away.

He didn't get to far though, a black & white CHP car had him pulled over not 2 miles down the road.

Sometimes it's better to be lucky than good!

That bright yellow Vette, sure pointed out that CHP radar unit for me!
