Well, that is about the Second Best outcome.

(best would be you both home safe).

Worst, well, let's not go there.

Your friend will get over this.

if you really thought it was THAT retarded you wouldn't have gotten in the car cause i'm sure you knew what he was going to, and second you would have told him not to and been a "best friend" and told him he is a dumbass...but hey people wait till something like going to jail to realize THIS IS ILLEGAL....duh

I hope this gives your friend and yourself the kick in the pants that was needed to know better. It sounds like you've learned your lesson, let's hope he has too.

Hahaha great comments... what went through my head? "OMG I'm gonna die" "wow cop cars are slow..." "watta rush" "wow 'friend' ur toast'" "wow that was stupid""wow it's friggin cold""how am i gonna get back to my car?""YES!!! I'm gettin picked up by the Lancer". Ne wayz he's out now on $5000 bail... Great kick in the pants... it still hurts btw... and the words "get down on the ground before i blow ur F*&^ing head off" keep replaying in my mind. All in all the moral of the story, "don't do stupid crap unless ur willing to face the consequences." Quick question btw, If ur phone rings while ur in "custody" are the cops allowed to answer it? My gf called and the guy answered and was jackin with her pretty bad... O yea and we did win hah, o did i say he ran... that's why it was so bad. Pretty badass rush tho. Them new 350zs can haul some *****

LOL did he really think he could get away from a cop? yea they don't accelerate as well, but I bet ur *** he would keep up with that Z on the straights, police interceptor vics can do like 140 I believe...So moral of story #2 is: Just because it is a "sports car" doesn't mean it is a ferrari...and honestly I don't think I would trust a Ferrari to get away from cops either...I hope ya'll didn't do that to associate the Thursday night car meets, cause that is why SAPD always cracks down on the meets cause the kids go out and race and kill themselves, Gl to ur friend

Your friend is luck to be put in the slammer. Stupid kid in Houston friday racing ~1:30pm lost control doing about 90 went in the oncoming lanes and murdered a woman. Knocked the engine completely out of her car. Oh yea by the way his buddy riding with him was killed also. His ******** father showed up later and said his son couldn't be racing. No pity.

Stupid trash
v
'His father said he does not believe his son would have been racing.'

"They always push this racing thing just because the kid is driving a nice little sports car," Larwa said in a phone interview Friday night. "I think that's blown out of proportion."

"I've let him drive so much on my truck. He'll go 55-60 (miles per hour), and he's afraid to go faster than that. I don't think he was racing. I think somebody was cutting him off. I know I'm his father, but I know him. My neighbors can vouch for me."

You know what the time differences are between cars with good drivers during autocross? It's like 2-3 seconds in a 60 second course. Think about drag racing. You're what 2 seconds faster than the cop after going a 1/4 of a mile? That's not very much difference.

Keep that in mind for next time.
