Yea or just slow my arse down. Last ticket I got was on my sport bike. But that is like taking a Ferarri out you can't get on it and stay under the speed limit. He won't get me again in the same location. It would be interesting to see how fast the detector would of picked up as he was nearly hidden at the very crest of a hill. I was doing good to with a clean driving record for once. May opt for driving school since it will be the only one 4 hour class.

Thanks for the tip though I may look into picking something up for the Z.

Just paid $565 for my ticket of running the light at Arlington/Madison. Red light tickets suck and they had my @$$ on video lol. Oh well, that's life. Everytime I pass that corner I use hand siganls to communicate with those that are watching via camera in phoenix, Az.

I found out a couple of years ago I could do mine online. Its way more convenient plus you can go directly to test in another window and have test material in the other!

Damn, it was only $120 total (or right around that) for mine. Granted, I ran a yellow light, but the officer said, "I had to wait at my green light for you to go through and I heard you downshift." Which was total BS, but whatever. I have until August until I can get caught again.

Here are the new RE760's that I bought yesterday



Alignment was way off and the bushings make a big difference too, the car literally drives better than it ever has in 7 years of ownership

A simple video of my first drive after installing the Boosted Performance turbo kit. Don't get too excited, just a couple of slow drive-by runs, making sure everything is A-OK.
