1969 Race Dart w/ 426 Hemi- garaged for 45+ years

I got caught doing giant burn out by local cops years back. Cop said roads dont look good striped up like that. Gave me a $70 one point ticket. Then cop didn't show up at court so judge dismissed ticket, zero fines, I was told to leave court room free and clear. But not likely to be that lucky again.
I took nearly every ticket I ever got to court, more than once the cop failed to show. On one occasion the cop decided to argue with the judge about how much of a "buffer zone" was permitted before issuing a speeding ticket. I'm sure he regretted that, and after the judge chewed his *** for a bit, the charge was dismissed and I was free to go.
I even got a police escort out of town that day, stuck dead to the speed limit that time.
