I got pulled over on Sunday by a NY State Police Trooper. However, he didn't want to talk cars. He reamed me out for speeding, 91mph in a 65. I got yelled at like a new recruit meeting his Drill Sargent for the first time. I guess in the end, he must have been a Corvette guy since he let me go.

Lesson learned

No reason to be negative like that to a fellow poster...

Glad the OP was smoking anything illegal. This cool experience might have had a different outcome .

While it is a compliment to the car, it's not a very professional thing to do IMO.
