Default Its funny seeing you guys here

I miss your ugly mugs.

I openly support both sites and crossedflags as well.

IMO, It's comes down to three things

1) The site owners/moderators. They have provided the platform, we play by their rules. I thank them.

2) The members. What benefits the members as a whole, generally benefits the site.

3) The payings vendors. As long as they are good intentioned and provide a fair shake to the members, they have right to make a living and store away a few nuts. It is an open platform for all members and vendors equally.

Good question. Not even a bartender when you need one. I need to have a talk with management.

whatever, ill tell my story here. it was saturday morning, i wasnt "pushing" it. 6th gear, creeped up to 92mph... got pulled over by an... econoline... yes the big hulking ford vans. I kept my mouth shut, didnt say anything, just yes sir, no sir, thank you sir. He assigned me 92 in a 50 (not reckless thankfully) and 520 dollar fine with a max of 5 points. (no laser/no radar) I have a friend who is a judge and he recommended a lawyer to me, so i think im set in that regard. i just feel stupid that this happened because i wasnt even having fun going fast... i was just cruising... stupid stupid stupid... ya live and ya learn i guess.

Wally,

I got a 83 in a 45. Cost me $675.00. Was going to cost $800.00 but I went to court and pleaded stupid. The judge cut me a break, although not a big one.

If the the cop didn't have radar, then I would get a lawyer and fight it. Seems like you have a good case.

Good luck!

i dont think it was pacing, since i KNOW they top out at 85, i think he used the old police technique of "guessing" my speed.

Oooo, that's very bad. But imagine 35+ Vettes traveling together in a line, and at times hitting 130+.....very fun!

Last time the club I belonged to did that, a couple of guys had to re-paint their front "bumper" from the sheer sandblast effect. If you do this, keep a gap.

Oh, sorry for the off topic.. I miss Z06vette.com too...
