I did it once and got a reckless driving ticket (luckily I was 
coasting down when clocked)

I wonder how so many folks get away with this day in and day out - I 
even *think* of speeding any more, and Johnny Law pops up around the 
corner.  And to those on the list who have rev-limited in FIFTH (on 
public roads, we're talking)  I wonder how some of you guys still 
have licenses at all... radar detectors?  luck? (dans sitting in the 
pax seat providing intelligent "where to speed" reports? LOL)

that's not what Geoffrey was asking, but I couldn't resist
