Seriously cops are no joke here... they love school zones even if the streets are absolutely empty... Does the ticket say how he knew you were speeding? if he's stationary and not pacing you, you can probably argue that he couldn't possibly know what your speed was.

It was a motorcycle cop and on the ticket it says laser, even though my radar detector never went off. Ticket says 33 in a 20. I asked to see the evidence of my speed and he wasn't able to furnish it. He went back to his saddlebag case that holds the equipment and came back and said it was no longer there because he had to do 80mph to catch up to me...which is total bull. There was a stop light about 1/4 mile after the school zone so my speed didn't change much and he didn't have to go far to catch me...he pulled up behind me as I was just hitting the stop light. Besides, if he blew thru the school zone at 80mph, it's him that's being unsafe...not me.

I would likely guess he was hiding somewhere and saw my bright blue sports car slightly outpacing other traffic and then took a guess that if those cars are doing 20, then I'm likely doing 30.

Same thing here... got a speeding ticket with a lazer but my radar never went off either :mad: 19 over the speed limit :icon14: plus no plate on front bumper... fml..............

Does anyone have a tire hook-up? I went to price tires today at Discount Tire and NTB. If anyone knows a place that might can get me a better deal, please let me know soon.

tsolin01 04-27-2011 10:10 AM

I ended up getting mine from Discount Tire since it was cheapest with installation. Just make sure you watch them so they don't scratch your wheels. I don't know of any shops off hand that would be cheaper but maybe Nina does.

also just to clarify for tomorrow, this is the location:

Omi Korean Grill & Bar
2625 Old Denton Rd
Carrollton, TX 75011

Time: 8PM

New folks are always welcome, just post here or PM me or sexZness if you're going so we know.

Elite Auto Werks in Garland is where I'm getting my rims and tires from. Give them a call cuz I'm pretty sure they can give you a good deal.

What are the details on this meet? Worth checking out?

sexZness 04-28-2011 04:17 PM

Worth checking out, I haven't been in a while now :( but that's wednesday nights

shoopajae10 04-29-2011 01:37 PM

I was kinda of disappointed at the saigon mall meet...

shoopajae10 04-29-2011 01:38 PM

Did you guys go to Omi yesterday?

zarc04 04-29-2011 01:48 PM

hey im working at irving but im live in lancaster where its the meet place??

tsolin01 04-29-2011 01:49 PM

Yup we did. Definitely ate a lot lol and then 4 of us ended up going to see fast five midnight showing in west plano.

Although we've been changing week to week, I think we should figure out a set place in case it gets confusing for new people that want to join up.

We usually meet in the Las Colinas area but we change venues every week to try different places and to keep it interesting. We have yet to decide where to go next Thursday so if you have any suggestions, let us know.

Which place would you pick?

shoopajae10 04-30-2011 02:17 AM

Just watched fast 5 tonight. It was actually pretty entertaining. Although there were some parts that were pretty ridiculous.

tsolin01 05-01-2011 01:02 AM

Well as far as a consistent meeting area, I guess the original Las Colinas area would be good. Might be enough variety there to just change restaurants every week but keep it in that same place. Unless someone has a better idea.

sexZness 05-01-2011 10:47 AM

+1 for Las Colinas :D Great choices of food, good lighting, plenty to douchy bimmers to keep us entertained... :rolleyes:

Mr. Q 05-01-2011 03:31 PM

I dont mind the las colinas spot at all. It's actually a pleasant drive up there most of the time.

zentropy 05-01-2011 08:38 PM

I think the Las Colinas spot thus far is the best location. Plenty of food choices decent parking after 9 and as centrally located as we can get.

shoopajae10 05-01-2011 11:34 PM

Any of you guys planning on joining me and a few zcot members to the Branson Z Fest in June 1st - 5th?!?!?

tsolin01 05-02-2011 12:45 AM

I won't be able to make that. I'm going to NYC May 27 to 31st and won't be able to take more days off.

That sucks man. Going to Manhattan?

tsolin01 05-02-2011 04:13 PM

Yup going with my gf since she's never been to NYC before so we're going to do all the tourist stuff.

Mr. Q 05-02-2011 05:13 PM

So which restaurant are we hitting up in the strip this week?

tsolin01 05-02-2011 05:28 PM

anyone wanna check out the cobb tuning open house this week instead?

rambunctious 05-02-2011 05:38 PM

Room for one more? Im in Irving.

sexZness 05-02-2011 05:51 PM

^ heck yes! :) we love new blood... :yum:

I don't mind going to the Cobb Tuning open house since it's like 5 minutes from my house :D but it's quite the drive for the guys in North Richland Hills and even Irving :( so it's really up to the rest of you guys

tsolin01 05-02-2011 06:01 PM

Well it's every 1st Thursday so just throwing it out there if anyone wanted to go. A friend of mine from work typically goes since he has an STI.

Probably just keep it at Las Colinas to make things simple. What else can we try there though? or you want to just go back to champps?

sexZness 05-02-2011 06:17 PM

We could try Keg Steakhouse & Bar, which is located in the same strip as Champps in Las Colinas.

859 W. John Carpenter Freeway
Irving, Texas 75039-2304
(972) 556-9188

Keg Steakhouse & Bar Menu
Appetizers: $5.95 - $10.95
Entrees: $11.95 - $38.95

Sidz 05-03-2011 10:13 AM

The Keg is sooo yum! If it's the same one as the one in Plano at least!

tsolin01 05-03-2011 11:38 AM

Unless anyone has any objections, the Keg it is. We'll just meet there and decide.
