advice? don't speed on 36th, you KNOW THIS, MAAAAAAN. lol this is blake from down the street, and being on 36th is about like being down at midway; to quote a freind "you're never out of a cops sight here." its true. and i went to the same hearing officer you will be going to, hes a nice guy, and he will give you three options, probably before you get a chance to tell him your story.
1. pay $200, stay clean for a year and get the ticket expunged.
2. pay $80 and be done with it (for first timers only usually).
3. go to court and challenge it.
i chose option 2, because option 1 is a waste. you're not going to go a year without getting a ticket, and even if you think you could pull it off, youre still taking a big gamble because you could end up paying the full amount of the ticket plus 200, plus the new ticket, and your record gets both. the record also gets a note that says you tried to go a year without a ticket and failed, which doesn't always look very good. one last thing to consider is that you might be driving extra cautious right now because you just got the ticket, but that gets old real fast. you will be back to your old driving habits before the end of the month, guaranteed.
my $.02, good luck. btw, those wheels looked fugly on my car but they are actually pretty hot on yours.

I am considering the options. I want to go with whichever doesn't affect my insurance. #2 I am guessing your insurance gets jacked up but you pay less for the ticket?
Btw I would never speed on 36th, I was on Noble when he was following me from way behind, and I got pulled over by 36th, but was still on noble.
And about the wheels. I've been almost threatened 3 times by 3 different people that they were going to "jack my rims." I told them to go ahead and do it so I can kill them. I do agree though they look pretty sweet. I'm getting jealous real quick of your 20g when I get to hear it everytime ya drive by
