I find it a little surprising that law enforcement in some western states actually closes public highways for speed events. These guys were going for a top speed run, with a radar officer "citing" them, and the proceeds from the "fine" going to charity. Sounds like fun, but it cost one guy his Enzo. Now they are contemplating whether they should do this in the future.
The link might ask you to "answer a few simple questions" before getting to the article. I did it, and it seemed pretty innocuous. I'm not the most web savy guy, so if anyone sees anything dubious about the link, let us know.
