Default I wish I had the video....

So back in the Sacramento Summer of 2012, Im working for a fire sprinkler company doing inspections and repairs. This particular day I had been working on some really big, heavy and dirty pipes and was looking pretty tore up at the end of the day. So I'm on my way home in my 70 Lemans Sport that I have been known to abuse from time to time (owned it since 84) and I'm just about home when I come to a red light. I could go thru the light and make a right at the next street and be home, or maybe I can squeeeeeze between those 3 cars waiting at the light, make a right then immediate left and be home. So as I'm slowly coming up behind the cars at the light and tracking to the right, I'm judging and mentally calculating if I can make it by these 3 cars, but at the last second, I think its too close so I pull back in line. As all this was going on, I'm blasting Static-X on the system and not immediately noticing the Sacramento PD car that appeared next to me. As I look over to the left, 2 cops in the car are looking kinda wierd and they're rolling down the window to talk to me. I turned down the music and said, "Sup?" . Not my best choice of words, but they kinda caught me off guard. So the Officer in the drivers side says, "Wanna race?". So I completely focused now on this smart ass talking **** and respond "Right here, right now?" and he says "Yeah!". Somehow during that short transition, the light had already turned green and the 3 cars in front of me had already gone thru the intersection, so when I turned back facing forward and saw it was clear, without t6hinking about it I dropped it in 1st and smoked em thru the intersection of Fruitridge and 24th Street in SAC. Not really a race launch, but much more theatrical. As I got thru the intersection my turn home is very close, so I let off the gas and as I made my right, I glanced to the left and saw the cops grinning ear to ear.
I went to every business at that intersection hoping the gas station or pool hall or anyone had video coverage of the intersection. Nada. That would have been so cool to have that on video!!!
