Ha ha. No not that time :blush:
I still have some of the concussion symptoms from it though :D

I actually tried to outrun a cop 6 years ago - not once but twice.  :wacko:

Let's just say Chrysler Intrepids aren't faster than a police radio.
I proved at another point in time that Rabbit GTI's are also nowhere near as fast as a police radio even if it did have a big 16V in it. I think I still have the bruises on my head from the cop takin' it to me in the back of the car.

It's no wonder I was payin' nearly $600 a MONTH (yes you read that correctly) for car insurance at one point.

Ahhh yes, those were good times [_[

That's enough of my storytelling, I should probably get back to work.
