Default Pulled Over By Police

Well it finally cooled off enough last night that I thought I would take a quick spin in the Cobra before dark. I went through town and on Rt.24 last stoplight before 55 mph I got a on it a little and quickly accelerated to 60 mph then backed her back down to 58.

While driving a mile further down the road I saw a car rapidly approaching me from behind, then the dreaded flashing lights came on. I signalled and pulled her over waiting for my fate.

The policeman came up and first out of his mouth was "is it real?" to which I responded no it's a replica. He told me he pulled me over because I broke the rear tires loose and it is illegal in Illinois to do. I know I held traction but I think all of the noise lead him to believe otherwise.

He told me it was a beautiful car and to hold it down around town, he said to take it out to the country to have fun with it and gave me a verbal warning and told me to have a nice night.

Shook his hand and told him to do the same, so did my car just get me into trouble and out of trouble at the same time???????????
