Cops are just straight up P-ricks when they catch you going over 2 or 3 mph. I got caught once doing that, but the cop didnt have a radar, he just 'assumed' that i went that fast. I still dont understand those Harley bikes against our mufflers though...

TalonGirl- i agree with you 100%. It's the bullshit games that cops play. I was doing absolutely nothing wrong and like i said, actually going under the speed limit because of the shit roads. On my Grand Am daily car I have 20% cheap ass limo tint that i got at Fleet Farm. I've had it on since 1996. Almost 10 years with that car and i've never been pulled over for tint. I drive that car all the time. I drive the GSX probably twice a week, sometimes maybe only once. Stereotype is right. I could take a cheap $50 POS car and practically spray paint the fucking windows black and probably get away with it. You got pulled over for plain and simple, bullshit reasons.
The exhaust thing is complete bullshit. People running around with 4x4's with dual exhaust out the back and dual glass packs, yes i could probably see getting busted. Some of those get pretty dam loud under heavy acceleraton. Why is it that Harleys can rap thru town at 2am in the morning and not get busted?
Why is it that every state has its own tint law but every state has negotiated a speed limit law or drinking age limit? Our neighbors to the east (Michigan) have no tint law. I beleive no front plate law too. It's B.S. Just because a group of politicians sit around a table and make up shit laws doesn't necessarily mean it's right. It's the U.S. If they're gonna do it for one state, they should do it for all. Why the fuck should i pay federal taxes for other states that i don't get the same benefits of their state?
I do this stuff as a hobby. I don't do it to piss others off (like cops, etc). I don't do it to street race. It's a good clean hobby that should have its incentives and not be frowned upon by the law.

DSM10Sec: Youza whore. Jk. I don't think I'd be pulling over any cute babes. Sorry. haha.. But please don't confuse me with one. I effin look like a little girl.
OneFast99: If I were to ever actually race my car, I would do it at RF. So it still [in my book anyways] makes it, as you say, a clean hobby, vs. having, say, drugs be my hobby. It's some what funny as well, considering the house across the street from where I got pulled over is the house of some of the biggest dealers in my city. Plus, I've watched people, as I'm driving down the road, hitting the bowl, and a cop rolls by us as we are side by side, and who gets starred down? The one with the red sportscar.
BULLSHIT!

I got pulled over for "running a redlight" when I took a right turn as the light turned orange or whatever color you may call it. Although I did flick off the tow truck guy, but that was because I slowed down to let him go and he didnt go do I went and he honked at me and flicked me off first...haha. Went to court, found out I was gonng lose so I gave in and payed $150 and took that one year probation thingy where if I didnt get a ticket for a year my record goes clean again. Some law enforcers can be a real pain sometimes, especially when they can do pretty much what they want and when they want. I wish I could turn on my sirens and run red lights and then turn them back off...
I think that the cop that pulled you over was just bored and had nothing better to do...like save lives.

So true. I got pulled over a while back for not using my turn signal switching lanes. But I always see cops NEVER using a turn signal. Ghey..

I'd say you were lucky and he was a nice guy. Look at the CA laws.
