Heres the text of the article,
Wabasha, MN, Sep. 21 (UPI) -- The Minnesota State Patrol pilot couldn't believe his stopwatch when he clocked a motorcycle on U.S. 61 traveling at 205 mph.
Man arrested for going 140 mph over limit
The Minnesota State Patrol pilot couldn't believe his stopwatch when he clocked a motorcycle on U.S. 61 traveling at 205 mph.
"I was in total disbelief," Al Loney told Tuesday's St. Paul (Minn.) Pioneer Press. "I had to double-check my watch because, in 27 years, I'd never seen anything move that fast."
In fact, Looney said the motorcycle was traveling faster than his airplane.
Loney radioed another state trooper, who stopped the two motorcyclists Saturday and arrested the faster rider, Samuel Armstrong Tilley, 20, for reckless driving, driving without a motorcycle license -- and driving 140 mph over the speed limit.
Tilley, by the way, is the son of a Washington County sheriff's deputy.
Several law enforcement sources told the newspaper Tilley might have set the record for the fastest speeding ticket in Minnesota history.

Geez guys, cut him some slack. I would love to do that. I would NEVER do that of course, but it would be cool for a few seconds, right up till your front tire came off the ground and *poof* you would be a memory. Those guys are nuts, but hey, if you got it, flaunt it.

I wonder if he broke the record for biggest fine for a speeding ticket. It cost me $40 for going 66 in a 55 in Minnesota.
