My streak came to an end...kinda...

Cool story. I've never been lucky like that and being honest hasn't helped either. Some people got it, some people don't. Good luck keeping your streak alive

With the lack or revenue, and the overspending by the federal, state, and local governments, I am shocked that you got off without a ticket..

Now days the police have less leeway to let people off due to budgets and revenue streams..Not a quota, but they need the money..

I always believe honesty is the best policy...Police don't like liar's and they are better to you, if you are honest with them...


Your story was great.

And your car is a Beast..

The exhaust is staying. This is one of the best sounding setups for the EvoX. The exhaust is just under 10lbs, compaired to the 46lbs the stock exhaust weighs. When i first started moding the car i wanted dual tipped because i didnt want that boy racer look. I had my heart set on the ETS V2 setup which was 900+ shipping and was 5-10lbs lighter then stock. My buddy was selling his Evo and took his tomei exhaust off and said he will sell it to me for $700. The tomei brand new is $1300 + shipping. So by the time it gets to canada im looking at ~$1500....a $1500 exhaust for $700 that is less then 10lbs...ill look like a boy racer for that. I cut a total of 46lbs from the turbo back.

Funny story.
I park as close to my bike for 2 reasons. 1. Less chance of someone hitting the rear of the car and 2. If someone tries to steal my bike, chances are they will bump into the car. So they will set the bike and car alarm off.
