last night as i was drivin up to bas from southend with my m8s, we saw 2 skylines and a crx and a type R civic go past us...all wanting to av a race with themselves lol...
i thought id put my foot down to see how quick my m8s zetec s was (she was behind me)....
and as i hit 110 (still acceleratin) and my m8 in the car said look everyone in front is slowin down, must be a pig speed trap... and i look at my clock said 112...then i saw the fuckin pigs on the side of the road and they were lookin at me and had their speed radar or wat ever in their hand!  
i felt so gutted!  ....i asked my m8s, wat should i do...a slip road was comin up, i said should i go left here and try and loose them? they said no, and that i should drive at 60mph...so i did, and straight away the pig started to follow me (he was fcukin hammerin it to catch up!) and as he was gettin closer he flashed me....AND DROVE PAST ME!!!  
we realised he must be goin after the skyline and other cars who flew off before me....i recon they went past the speed trap at about 140mph!!! 
and sure enough, 2 miles down the road we saw flashin lights, and the pig had caught the civic and crx...and further down the road we saw the skyline and another car stopped.
so if it wernt for the cars infront of me racin id be foooked!!!  the pigs obviously faught my humble 112mph run wasnt fast enough for them....  bigger fish to fry a?! well dont mind me officer!
one lucky bastered...

You're very lucky, but as Greg says, that's pretty daft on a public road IMO...

Your lucky you didnt get caught but it was bloody stupid of you. Speeding on a motorway I can understand up to about 90, after that your just going too far.
You could have lost it and killed someone or yourself, and what kinda point was there to taking a Skyline etc on??

clearly you lies in your thread title as you never got caught. they probably did not scan you as the cars in front were going quicker. I would have taken the slip road

keep speed for the right places! Speed limits are there for a reason, we all go slightly over it from time to time, but 120 etc is daft...that was a warning to you, slow down and dont risk your license, enjoy cruising. ;-)
