Anyone else now have Officers/Deputies/Troopers with the LED lightbars on the cruisers instead of the huge traditional lightbars?  Those guys are really tough to pick out at a distance.  Even when they are behind you it just looks like a roof rack.

Hey don't feel bad Rip...Williams-BMW F1 driver Juan Montoya lost his license a couple of days ago for doing 204kph (126mph) in a 130kph (80mph) zone!

BTW, went to the BMW "Drive for the Cure" thing here locally and drove the 760Li as well as a couple of other Bimmers.  WOW!  The 760Li was way better than I expected for a whale.  That thing will scoot and handles pretty well given its supertanker size.  The electronic toys were pretty annoying though.  It must have an owners manual the size of a dictionary...I wonder if there is an "iDRIVE for Dummies" available. LOL  The next day I saw in the paper where some Finance Minister somewhere in the world was trapped in his car for a while because the on-board computer died, which controlled the door locks.  My first thought was of the 7-series and sure enough it was a Bimmer...iDRIVE strikes back!

Bet that was a blast crowMAW!  Im looking forward to the new 5 series myself... the concepts have some promise, and who can argue with a 3.0L Twin Turbo and V10 respectively?

Ah things are a-changing... now family sedans are faster than "sports cars."  Who'da'thunk'it?

Had my license suspended from getting so many speeding tickets.

Got one for doing 115MPH in a 50MPH zone. Was given two tickets- one for reckless and for doing 65 over... went to court and presented my case to the judge, he knocked it down 70 in a 50 zone and took away the reckless.

He must have one gorgeous wife and had great sex that morning, only way I can figure he cut me so much slack.
