Sooo.....it only took 8 days.....
 
To get my first speeding ticket in 10 years:). 88 in a 70mph zone. The ticket was 188 bucks but I can go to school for ..........$225! :mad:

that scks. At least you can go to traffic school. Hopefully your insurance won't go up.

:iagree:

Mine is running everytime I get in the car. I don't really intentionality speed around all the time. It's more of a reminder to slow down.

I don't own a fuzz buster. I just usually stay within 10mph of the speed limit, unless flow of traffic dictates a slower or swifter pace.

I had a radar detector, an Escort 9500. Very cool with its GPS, but it went off a lot and never detected a cop, so after 30 days I returned it. Still no ticket but they do go with the territory.

op- hahahaha, well, it is kinda easy to go fast on the 370Z. :D

goodluck with the ticket. :)

My 9500ix has saved me at least a dozen times -- including this morning on 680 in Danville. It went off quickly -- Ka band -- and I let off the gas just as I spotted the Man up ahead on the shoulder with his radar gun. I think I was around 80 - 85 when he lit me up but was able to get down to everyone else's speed in time thanks to the heads up.

I definitely don't like hitting the road without my V1. Even if I'm not speeding, it's just a comfort thing now. I couldn't tell you how many times it's saved my ***.
