Anyone ever been targeted for driving a stang?

i don't mean to sound like an A hole or anything, especially since i've been in a similar situation before, but if you can afford a car that idles faster than the posted speed limit, how does a speeding ticket hurt you so bad? also, how did you afford such a car if you have a dead end job? i thought I was in a bad financial situation (i work, go to college, and have bills of my own like everyone else), if you could tell me your secret, that would be great.

i was caught once doing a burnout, as was my friend who did one in front of me without noticing a cop coming toward us from way down the street. i was very polite to the cop that caught us and, god bless his soul, he let us off with a warning. we knew what we were doing, and we were smart enough to do it where we weren't putting anyone or anything else in danger, but still...laws and whatnot, sigh. i've also had a cop somehow clock me doing 44 in a 30 from behind a giant SUV. ah, the wonders of radar and laser technology. i could've sworn i was only doing 40, too. i usually only drive 5 mph over the posted speed limit, but in this case i was trying to pass the monster cuz it almost came into my lane and hit me. i swear, i have no love for SUVs, and also motorcycle cops (i was nice to him too, but it didn't matter), which is the type of cop that ticketed me. which brings me to ANOTHER story, lol...

when i was little, my dad was pulled over by a motorcycle cop for some reason or another. the thing is, motorcycle cop #1's buddy was trying like hell to kick start his bike, but to no avail. my dad couldn't keep from laughing, and i think me and my little brother laughed too. mc #2 was seriously P I $ $ E D, ticketed my dad for a bunch of made up stuff, which was later thrown out in court. anyway, the moral of the story is...i forget. um, have a nice day everyone, and remember to drive safe.
