Hey Joe, I hope all is well. I actually have a S2 with a laser shifter but I had taken the Laser shifter out because it doesn't fit in my grill too good and the radar was in my buddy's car. I was so pissed. Anyway, I will keep you posted. Tell everyone I said hello. I will see you guys in the spring! I am getting the ACT clutch put in and I just ordered some Black Volks with a chrome lip.
Sweet, can't wait to see it. You should post more in the atlanta section. We haven't heard from you in a while.

I drive GA 400 every day and don't see too many cops patrolling that highway, especially state patrol. And when I do see cops they're using laser from the side of the road.

119/55? Are you kidding? That is way too fast! Slow down for your own safety as well as others!

I got pulled over on the freeway for racing a civic in my younger years. I was going 114 in a 65 and had to spend the night in jail. It was 2 counts of misdemeanor traffic - engaged in a speed contest and reckless driving. Oddly enough we were both heading to Ontario for the street races. Anyways I couldn't afford a lawyer so it ended up being $2600 in fines, one year probabtion, 30 day impound and a six month license suspension (each misdemeanor is 2 points on your driving record). If its listed as a misdemeanor on the ticket you may want to hire an attroney.

It's a good thing you had your office friend as a witness. You know, to ensure the "talk at the cooler."

damn worst i ever got was a 92 in a 45 workzone, double points, double fine in an incorporated village. i basically begged and pleaded and got it knocked down to 80 in a 55, not a work zone, and no jail time, and my lawyer sucked.
