So I get a call from a good friend of mine yesterday and I can tell by his ecstatic voice something just went down. Now mind you he is again a good friend and wouldn't bullshit, and judging by the sound of his voice you could tell he had the jitters.
He stopped at a gas station to get directions as he was headed home for Thanksgiving. He ends up locking his keys in his car (99 Cobra), well there is a state trooper charger sitting at the gas station. So my buddy asks the cop if he could please get his door unlocked for him, so the trooper calls a local sherrif to get things rolling. Well while they're waiting for the sherrif they start talking about mustangs and turns out the trooper has a fox body. So the sherrif gets there and unlocks the car and my buddy gets on his merry way.
So, while he is driving along he spots the trooper's charger behind him, and it slowly makes his way up to him and they are door to door. He looks over and gives him a respectful wave.......and the trooper gives him the (burn 'em) hand signal! There's my buddy, sitting door to door with a state trooper, and he is completely mind boggled of what is going on. The trooper keeps giving him the signal, so my buddy says "**** it!" and drops it, goes up to about 95 when out of nowhere the trooper blows by him! He said he had to be doing atleast 130!
Insane, what a once in a lifetime chance. Crazy to see a trooper, of all police officers, to go and have some fun.
Anyone else have a story like this?
