Having left Bonneville,and on way to L.A.,I was near InyoKern,California when a Chippy did a u-turn on HWY-385 and raced up near,and tailed me for a "long" time.Suppose he satisfied himself that I was "legal",as he never did stop me,slowed,reversed direction and disappeared in the rearview.I'd left all the numbers and safety inspection stuff on the CRX,there was a little salt left on the car,he was probably justified in "looking".I did get pulled over for speeding in the T-100 last trip out to West Texas.The Trooper had me pulled over and out of the truck when it donned on him that I was doing 77 in a 80.He was really (and I mean Really) embarrassed,apologized for the inconvenience to me,said he was new to the area,and not used to the 80-mph speed zone yet.We chatted about aero mods,he gave me the thumbs-up,apologized once more and that was the end of it.I'm glad he was nowhere around when I was tailing a Homeland Security Tahoe at 109 mph in Arizona!
