Chances are you may win somewhere somehow.

Or, just pay your money and let it go.

You are right 100+ in Cal equals, 2 points, possible take you to jail, possible suspension by Court, and even worse DMV Nazi's will eat you alive (office of Traffic Safety)

DO NOT GET CAUGHT GOING OVER 100+ MPH in CAL (Don't ask me why I know)

Thanks for the help. The citation was for 93 in a 70 mph zone.
He was sitting in the dark in the median, about 7:30 pm, and I went buy and saw the blue and red cherries light up, and the car turned around and he was after me.

It could have been much worse.
I am happy I was not caught going down there. I had left Stockton at 10 pm, so to get there, (to LA) I was running 90-120 mph, and hit 140 a couple of times. But it was about midnight to 2 am, and some car stayed behind me
all the way, I think some new Lexus or Acura, and a couple of times he tried to pass me at 120, but I wouldn't let him. Stayed with me all the way to the 405 split in LA.

These big Benzes are amazing at speed, just amazing. It never felt unsafe.
Just quite a bit of wind noise over 120 mph.
