That's what I thought also. About 10 years ago when I had a 951, I accelerated quickly from a stop light, never speeding just right up to the speed limit and let off. A cop going the opposite direction flipped around and pulled me over. He wrote me a ticket for "excessive acceleration". Keep in mind I never broke the tires loose or anything but, it had a Fabspeed exhaust and was a bit on the loud side. I ended up fighting it and won but, I thought it was a bit a ridiculous and a waste of time.

Surprisingly, I've only had a few people attempt to race me in my first six months and every one of them was a European car. A few Audi's, a VW and a Volvo. It didnt make sense to me! I never raced any of them. I go fast for my own enjoyment, not to get into some dick measuring contest with the idiot in the next lane.
