Thats cool, too bad we didn't run into each other. CHP patrol seemed really light this trip. My V1 kept the speed in check when needed. Hate those damn speed signs that trip the V1 off like 5 miles away. Never sure if the Chippy is cloaking himself amongst these radar signs.

I did see a silver 4.6 and a X6 with a 5.0 emblem. What's in those things?

I guess he didn't want to run it past 125 since I ended up passing him. Not even a glance over...lol. Oh well, I kept it civil as I knew it was the end of the month and CHiPies love to rack up their tickets to meet their quota. I saw at least 4 patrol cars on various parts of the 15S.

I also thought about the air patrol being around so I didn't push it past 85. There was no way they would miss an big estoril x5 hauling down the road. At least with black you could at least try to fight it if you got busted

Give it time, I am sure someone will complain about my speed as well. The only thing I can say to them is, Keep right, for your safety and mine.
