Mustang tried the Spyder RSS
I don't usually speed or accept races but I was crusing along and came to a stop light. The guy next to me was in a late 90's early 00's Mustang. We made eye contact, he rev'd the engine, though I was hesitant...it was on! Light turned green we took off, Mustang ahead a little then I hit 2nd-3rd and blew passed him. Winner Spyder. At the next light he didn't look at me so I took that as his defeat! What a rush! But don't think I'll be doing that again...So now I retire 1-0 and undefeated, LOL!

Not that I'm an angel, but you might have needed to float a loan to pay the fine and its probably reckless driving in this state same as DWI/DUI. Really expensive.

Roll of the dice
It's a roll of the dice for sure, not something I do very often.
it was fun while it lasted.

Had a Subaru WRX (Turbo) try to get me to wind up just last week. I was very tempted. However, with my luck, the radar cop would have been watching the whole thing.

Why have a toy if you can't play with it is my philosophy. Been triple digits on nearly every long ride.

I had a guy on a fatboy try to race me once. Pulled up next me on the left side of a two lane at a light. He kept cracking the throttle and staring at me. There was a young female on the backseat and they were both geared like squids. Not even helmets.
Light turned green and I watched in my mirror as he did his best to catch up.
Once I hit 90mph and saw the single lane merge ahead, I waved them forward with my left hand and backed off the throttle.
He roared by with eyes front and I just smiled at his passenger as they went by.

Had the same thing happen to me while riding two up, when he came up beside me at the next light he gave a thumbs up.
