Its actually not too bad considering I drive one of the most expensive cars to insure, ~$140/month for full-coverage with a $500 deductible.

Re: Got my first ticket
I've only gotten one speeding ticket, paid it because I knew it was my fault. Since then I haven't gotten any flak from cops in well over a year. Except one time when me and twack were cruisin... :P

Helps when your car isn't fast enough to break the speed limits in the first place.

Re: Got my first ticket
^ lucky bastard, and no radar detector even
BTW, they will throw out the tint ticket completely if you tell them you'll take it off. I've never paid for one.

Re: Got my first ticket
I'm going to take it off and re-do it with 50 I guess... i'm a little upset about it I guess, cause I thought I got 35 or 30 and it was bobbling between 23-24 on his meter.

30 - 6 (factory tint) = 24%
Don't take it off, just go and tell them you'll get it removed. You're getting too bent out of shape over a dumb ticket.

I can get away with that? Aren't they going to want me to prove to them that I took it off? Me just saying i'll do it is enough?
Also, how the heck do I find out how much i'm supposed to pay? The ticket has no info about that on it??

Since you have a clean record I don't think they'll give you any hassle about it. But, do you have any old pics of your car before the tint? Or, just find a picture of a blue 4G online  I've done both of these tricks before.
There should be a website and/or phone # on the ticket, it sometimes will take up to a week for the citation to get into their system though so be patient.

Haha, I did the same thing. The only previous pictures I had were with Iowa plates so I had to get a picture of another online, I kept it for future use as well. I even have like 3 warnings for tint, they still let me off.

There's an open invitation to autocrosses and other track events. Leave the straight line highway dick wagging to the ricers and people who think they are good drivers.

A race is a race. You watch nascar dont you? They hold the steering wheel in one position the entire time, much like drag racing.
Im glad you are good at dodging cones.

NASCAR drives straight on an oval just as much as any other series that's on road courses. Those races are won in the turns where car setup and driver skill matter.
You said, "Want to race?" Autocrossing, karting, road racing... Name your poison.  Don't challenge me to race and expect it to be on a public road and in a straight line.

Dont expect me to aUtoCrOzz. Not everyone is into dodging cones. Ill keep the rubber on my tires, thanks though for the offers. No one cares you are a so called better driver either.
Anyway, back to tint..
