I read somewhere that Bill Gates always had a penchant for high speed driving, and I know he had a porsche at some point early on in his money-making career. Maybe even at this point.
In a late seventies era Porsche, in the desert you could hit 130-150 easy. That would be enough to piss off some local cops.
Especially if they had to chase you in their late seventies era Crown Vic's/Caprice's etc. etc.
