i saw you ronnie while you passed the chevron gas station. at least i think it was you. or just a very tastefully done red m3. lol.
hey james ... hope you cheer up buddy ...
the scariest thing happened ... around 1 a.m., derek and i were going to the bowling alley, and so it was me at a light (2nd one before the light to turn left onto 87 from capital expway), then derek behind me ... and pulling up to the left turning lane (red light), was a cop. corner of my eye i saw the cop car, and so i slowly stepped on the throttle, and my exhaust starts to drone, then derek is behind me, and then out of no where i see red and blue go off, then i think "oh crap derek's going to get pulled over ...", but derek pulls to the right to get out of the cops way, and the **** comes straight on my *** ... i nearly pissed in my pants ... then he just went to the side of me, starred at me and sped off ... so many people were getting pulled over tonight, i was scared I was going to be one of them even though I was being safe and not doing anything wrong.

. Probably the same cop too. Where in San Jose did you get pulled over at? If it's around Tully & Capitol, that area is essentially a "no modded cars" zone since cops are swarming around that area. Yep, no front plate is usually their primary excuse to pull you over, then it's downhill from there. Sometimes I think I should just get a Z06 since I never see those bastards pull a Vette over for no front plate.Where is little James? I think he was more down about his hood then the tickets.

I was gonna go last night, I swear. I washed the car and just when I was done drying it I get lit up like a x-mass tree by my cell phone. Bing, bing, bing. I had a Cisco switch power supply go nuts, pop a breaker. None of my production systems went down because they are on redundant power but our UAT was all messed up. I was at the datacenter until 1:30am getting it all back up and running.
Maybe next week.

Hey guys.
Friday was a really ****ty day. Being pulled over once in the morning before my final and being late to it was one thing. But then being pulled over that evening as I was driving normally and being singled out while with some friends going to the meet was another.
The cop basically gave me another front plate ticket even after I showed him my one from this monring. He also gave me a ticket for the JWT popcharger, even though I showed him the CARB legal sticker with the number. He was a dick and I fully coorperated because I knew I had nothing wrong on my car, just it looking "highly modified" as he put it. Now I gotta waste my time and money again and see the state ref or some crap.
To top it off when I popped the hood at the meet to show people my carb sticker on the pop charger and my CF hood I bought brand new less than a month ago got 3 huge 6-9 inch scratch / stretch marks when I closed it normally as I had a 100 times before, and many of you at the meet saw this happen.
Anyways, I am contemplaing selling all the CF now.
-Peace
btw, "middle" james, pm me maybe we can go together one day or something

i need to find my front plate mount ... i think it's in the garage, i'm not sure ...
hmm ... seems like everyone is having carbon fiber problems =/ since the cop see's 2 tones on your car from behind (james), it gives him a head start in wondering if he should pull you over? but maybe if it was one tone he would just think it's regular and be on his way ... i dont know that's just what i think.
