Speeding ticket update
I finally had my day in court for my speeding ticket..I was charged with 53 mph in a 35 zone...I had a few friends tell me to get there early and strike a deal with the cop...Well it worked!! I plead guilty to doing 40 in a 35 zone..That equals a fine with NO POINTS!! So if you ever get a speeding ticket always plead not guilty and ask for your day in court.

[/IMG]How did you get your Vette to go that slow. Does it require a special chip? I've never seen 55mph on mine.
Wait, I know you photo chopped the 1 out of the 155mph, didn't you?

Has any one tried the Window Valet Panic mode? -- the manual says entering this 'novelty mode' sets the the RPM to Zero and the SPEED locked on the 40MPH! -- anyone tried to bluff their way out of a ticket?

When I first bought my 99 hard top I got caught doing 135 in a 55. Keene Texas. I thought for sure I was headed for jail, I imediatly pulled over gave the Texas dps officer my info. He wrote me a ticket gave it to a lawyer pled guilty and got differed Adjutication. 6 mos later it was like it never happened best $500 I ever spent!
