Had a similar thing with my 2000 Estate 1966 mb65007 SC. Except I had
beat him out for 4 blocks till I got to the speed limit & a block
further he blew past and The Police nailed the rice burner.

Sure wasn't my experience ... I used to get tickets fairly often when my
TR3A was red, haven't gotten a single one since I had it painted dark
green.
However, I have come close. Probably would've gotten one, if the 5.0
Mustang I'd just passed on an entrance ramp hadn't been able to outrun
me on the freeway. He had just passed me when I caught a glimpse of a
CHP at the next ramp. I slowed down, the 5.0 got the ticket. "I love
it when a plan comes together." <G>
