    Haha - wow - looks like I had quite a fanclub that night!

    Ugh - it was me... I was pulled over for doin 97 in a 65 thanks for my good ol' K40 laser defuser system. Don't get me started on that thing right now - but I'm in the process of dealing with the manufacturer and everything else to prove I wasn't actually doing 97. I had my cruise control set at 73mph (b/c I knew my tag was expired ($$ reasons) and didn't want any additional issues)... Well needless to say - I almost got jail time - the cop let me go with just 4 tickets...illegal license plate cover (covered the date apparently), expired tag, illegal tint (16% - off by 4%) and obviously speeding 97 in a 65 via laser. I'm not sure of the type of gun used yet; I'll find that out soon hopefully.

    That's the thread I've started over at RadarDetector to work through it... The first 3 tickets are a given; I will admit I am guilty of those three. Didn't know the tint was 4% to dark and didn't know the license plate holder covered it too much - but that's fine... I will deal w/ those tickets just as they are for my own fault. However - the speeding ticket I'm going to be fighting tooth and nail.

    I have already started a G2G thread for the 2007 Atlanta/Southeast Radar/Laser Invitational over here -->http://www.wrxatlanta.com/forums/showthread.php?p=181150

    I've been having issues with my K40 laser defuser lately, and am very concerned that could be the cause of the false reading. If I was actually going that fast, I wouldn't be putting this much effort into it to fight it if I legitimately was going that fast so now i get the fun task of fighting the ticket...yay...

    So ya - wasn't 7wolf or clemson... Damn K40!

    We were in '1408' around that time :) I would've honked at you on the side of the road, but with it being that late, he probably would've come after me thingking I was drunk (I wasn't...)

    Hey - I would've loved for him to come after you thinking you were drunk! Haha - if he THOUGHT you were and you weren't then we both could've gotten off just fine. ;)

    Damn...I was in that same movie theater....Sorry you got pulled. I have radar and will be more than happy to help you out somehow I can. It sucks that you got all that. I've been in a similar situation before, so if it helps you get out of it and save some scratch, let me know....
