There is NOTHING understandable about getting a tint ticket, that's another BS law. I was an MP in the Army, I made plenty of traffic stops, plenty. IF the guy in the car is determined to shoot you he is going to attempt it with or without window tint. IF the cop is so relaxed and lazy to not take extra precautions on a stop to not be shot, the tint isn't helping hurting him or helping him.

in places like california, there are often "characters" that are illegal immigrants and can't get stopped, so any advantage to the police officer there to help provent a deadly shooting, I condone. Not being able to have tint when I lived there in cali sucked though with the heat(moving back in 2 years, max; it is nice to not have emisisons here in michigan, but I have no boost..saving)

tint can also be dangerous at night, especially the shiny/metallic tints. just my .02 cents

Exhaust repair for the OE exhaust. WTF? What did you do when you showed them it was the exhaust that came on the car?

Agreed. I wasn't going to argue with the cop because either way, I was still getting f*cked.. Hope everything is going well in Ohio!

Yup, I was pissed. I didn't even realize he wrote that up as well. He didn't even say anything about the exhaust at the time. Just screwing me over to waste my time and money.

I'm still trying to wrap my head around the idea of trying to autocross a car with this much power. I honestly don't know if its possible. Even with beefy tires you will be spinning them like crazy and won't be able to get on the power without slamming through rows of cones. A road course would let you stretch the power out, but without major aero/safety gear it would be absolutely terrifying.

I waited all day to take the car out. My temper definitely gets the better of me some days........I HATE-HATE stupid people, add police to the list.

Jumped in the car after work with my son and daughter and headed home. It's rained a LOT here, I mean record rain fall. So I understand the grass has gotten tall and I also understand some people are lazy and don't mow when they get a chance. I have what I'd guess is 1.5 acres of yard I mow and another 3 acres I mow occasionally just to keep it down fairly low. On the way home I'm coming down the road I live on, windows down, itune playing just looking forward to getting my wife and all of us going to dinner at this cruise-in tonight.

Then I see it, the ******* on his Grasshopper mower, I'd say a 60" cut. NO chute cover. He's mowed (3) 60" paths, each one blowing the one before it closer to the road. When I got to him he was on his last pass with grass blowing across two lanes no kidding 3 feet high. Now what fking moron blows his grass in the road in the first place, let alone enough to completely cover two entire lanes? As I pass him it was too late to do anything so the grass covered the car and blew in the window, I was on the horn with my middle finger extended out the window at full arms length.........I had a choice, pull over and go to jail or make a call. Well did you know there is no laws against doing that? Surprising to me they worry about my front plate but not an entire roadway covered in wet grass. Have any of you ever hit grass or gravel on a road on a motorcycle? I have, it's not fun. Do you think just common sense would tell you to not do such a thing. The Huron County Sheriff is worthless for reference.

I made a phone call to the guy after being warned by the Sheriff to not go there. He of course wasn't there. This same douche is the treasurer for our schools and voted for obama....yep it's all coming together now.

Anyway, I was so pissed I couldn't function. I cleaned the grass off the car and out of the interior, rolled up the windows and locked it.

I rode to dinner in the passenger seat of my wife's Taurus with my eyes closed and head back. Two beers at dinner and I could finally focus on something other than killing someone.

Yes, I have issues. I have not ever covered someone's car in grass from my yard though.

I hate stupid people.
