I used to get pulled over in my Delorean all the time. I'd make the cop bend all the way down to the tiny window to talk to me. Haha.

I have never gotten pulled over in any of my sports cars. I usually follow traffic and on the 294 80 mph is average speed. I actually still get passed at that speed. Waze and knowing how a good radar detector works doesn’t hurt either.

I got caught doing a launch in an abandoned Walmart parking lot. 150 ft of rubber and enough smoke to choke the surrounding neighborhood. The cop was cool and liked my veteran plates. All was well!
