A ‘66 Beatle with a fresh engine and (I thought) a clear interstate going up a fairly steep hill. It looked like the perfect place to see what the new engine would do. The patrolman asked if I knew how fast I was going. “No sir” I said, “ the speedometer was pegged out”. Clocked at 83 in a 55 zone, he was kind enough to dial it back to 74 so I didn’t lose my license.
