Ok guys i have a new one for you to help me with. So yesterday i was driving back to texas for school. i was following my friend in my evo and he was in a mustang. the texas speed limit is 70 mph. i was doing between 75 and 80. josh was about 20 car lengths in front of me. i saw him slam on his brakes as he was going over a hill. i then to hit my brakes and slowed to about 70 because we both have radar detectors i figured there was a cop. sure enough when i came over the hill there was a cop in the right lane going about 30 mph. i was on the phone with my mom and told here josh was going to get pulled over. a few seconds later as josh passed the cop (josh going 70mph) the lights went on. so i kept on going about 1/4+ mile a head of him and pulled over to wait. cop gets out and talks to josh and the next thing i know josh is driving again up to me, he pulls in font of me and shuts off his car just as the police officer is pulling up to park behind me!!!! next thing i know im getting a ticket for speeding wtf?? he estimated my speed at 80mph because i was traveling with josh and thats what he got clocked at. now there is no way he got me on radar going that fast. i was going only 70 when my radar went off. we both got tickets for going 80 in a 70 and only josh was on radar. he cant do this...can he? i have to call this judge and find out how much i have to pay, but i cant go argue it because its a 6 hour drive from here and i cant miss school to argue my case. so what now?

well funny thing is the cop that gave me the speeding ticket yesterday is the same cop that gave me my first speeding ticket about 8 months ago when i was going home from college but that was in my audi. o ya i only have 2 speeding tickets but same cop.
28% in the fron and 15% in the back..
i got my eye doctor to write me a release.... i had the lasic done a couple years ago and its for that....
so when i do get snapped i give them that with my license and registration and they cant do anything to me.. if they write me a ticket i can go to court and sue.
get the ticket dismissed and claim that my insurance is going to go up because of the ticket being issured.... all cops know that and they dont hassle me.
theres only 1 city in the area i live in that cares and hassle's people... and im rarely there cause its super wigger lol might get gatted by a homey in a clk500 with a 4.0 gpa lol
cheers!

well its traded now... but i had a custom downpipe with electric cut out.. 2nd side intercooler, custom piping, neuspeed race springs, h&r sway bars, revo custom tune, 007 bpv, 50 shot n/x, ported mani and stock ko3, lots of stereo **** and looks... it had some pep to it but mainly i wanted a chill ride.
i know it handle better than the evo, but it felt like it did. i felt a lot more confident driving it and had a better feeling after a fast turn.. the evo feels like it wants to slide out crazy... the audi was just planted.
cheers!

I got 5% on everything cept my windshield. I love the black out like limos have. Great for privacy.

Cops see me for:
Rally RED
Limo tint 5%
Exhaust sound (greddy ti with downpipe/cat-delete)
I get tint tickets and since my friends are cops they just sign it off for me and thats it. In michigan anything on front 2 windows is illegal cept for 4 inch from top.

Whats bullshlt about tint is that it gets a little darker over time. So you could get it at the darkest legal limit, and then a year later get a ticket cause it's too dark. I had 20% on my last car and got pulled over for it, along with no front plate and not wearing my seatbelt. Anyway he tested my tint and it came back at like 16% Our laws in WI are 50% in front and 35% in rear, but personally I think it looks ghey with the front and rear two different tints, so I do 15% or 20% depending on the color of the interior, and the car itself.
By the way you guys with 5% are crazy, with 20% I had to roll down the window sometimes if I was on a road with no street lights.

i got 20% and i have gotten 3 tickets in the last 2 months two were in the last two weeks. 75 bucks cash on the spot every time. thinking about taking them off the front or getting lighter like 30% but i think it will look stupid.
