it was nice to meet some of you guys at the track tonight but my night ended up with me being by a state trooper. . .102 in a 60. . .I was being tailgated and had an opening to get away from the douche but only to get pulled over by The Man. . .he wouldn't stop following me but still my fault for speeding, should have slowed down and pulled over. . .there goes my clean driving record. . .life goes on. . .

You need a radar detector. I have a lawyer that charges about $150 per incident, but it will never hit your driving record, and it's cheaper than court cost.

Had a blast tonight at NPR despite the slipping clutch. I got the consistency down tho. All my times were within 0.1 seconds of each other. Im thinking lose alittle weight and new clutch and i could hit 13.9's or .8's. All night in the 14.1's tho. Time to go clutch shopping.

Did yall see that truck in the ditch last night? looked like he tried to burnout while leaving the track (on the main road) and it just went horribly wrong or something....

glad I got to finally meet a few guys as well. wish I could have stayed longer but my girl was dying to go shake her lil a$$ in a club....

1st run EVER 16.57@110.6

5th run 13.63@112.47

If I knew how to drive, I think it would run high 12's. I was also on my low boost setting.

Fred King? I use him thanks to Lance and he has helped me get out of a 92 in a 60 which I paid him 150 for and now he is getting a one way/careless driving/late for court date ticket taken care of for 100...but i assume if he doesnt get the charges dropped completely you still pay him the money plus whatever he got it reduced to or w.e

were the tickets written by a state trooper or a regular cop. . .i ask because i hear the state troopers tickets are almost impossible to get out of. . .

Glad we didn't meet up with any cops on 10 because we were cruising pretty good.

Scotty in the red 300zx almost nailed a deer.
It was freakin close, he swerved to the shoulder and so did the did.
I think the deer jumped over his car, lol.

No, it's a flat fee. He got me out of a reckless operation, and drag racing in Jefferson for that price. It might be a little more if he has to go out of town. If you are interested, I can pm you his number. One thing I am sure of, it will not hit you driving record, I have used him about 4 times.
