Short race with a BMW bike
Well, after almost getting my car impounded becasue my registration was expired, no inspection sticker, front plate, etc That' a whole other story, I was driving home on Weds. from work about to get on the Parkway and I see this bike following rather closely. We both turn onto the on ramp to get onto the parkway but we get stuck behind this Camry doing 20mph. As we approached the highway I knew that the bike would jump the 2 lanes and make a run for it so I kept it in 2nd waiting to make my move.
As I predicted, the bike put's on it's signal and makes a run for it. As this is happening I floor it and pass the Camry so it's me and the bike on the parkway now, he started to pass but I hit full boost and walked him all the way to about 110mph and then I let off due to traffic ahead. he kept on going a little more then slowed down but i considered it my first kill in a very long time.
Here's the bike.

First of all, the bikes are known as "Beamers" whereas the cars are known as "Bimmers"
Secondly, WTF were you thinking for racing with expired registration, etc.??? Especially if you just got stopped for it. Maybe your car should be impounded because you obviously want it to be when you do **** like that.

Beamers or Bimmers, who cares. As far as the racing with an expired registration, 1RevvinFC3S is right. You are just asking for trouble. I got a bogus wreckless driving citation and I laid low until the trial where it got dismissed. Even though I didn't do anything wrong the first time, getting caught goofing off with the other citation pending reflects real poorly on you in eyes of the law. Getting stopped for street racing and wreckless driving hours after being stopped once is like doing a burnout in front of the local donut shop, you are asking them to take your car and your license.
