    I always to try to remember another little saying that I was taught by many officers in this situation... "The badge with get the pu$s* but the pu$s* will get the badge.

    Radar Detectors

    30mph over here will usually get you a trip to the magistrate and not only will you walk away with a speeding ticket you will also walk away with one for reckless driving as well. The funny thing is I have actually had people tell me that there was no way that I clocked them since their radar...

    Radar Detectors

    No they are not required to be marked at all in my state. That black camaro is a unmarked patrol car in my county and believe me he stops cars all the time. I am not aware of any laser devices in use in north carolina and I know that SHP is not using them.

    Guys...don't kill me

    I ran the e-cam for a long time and had all the idle issues that sometimes come with it. I tried all kinds of ways to fix it and ended up going with a custom chip and that cleared it right up. Now my brother ran the cam in his car and never had a minutes trouble out of it. So it's really a hit...

    Radar Detectors

    Yea our highway patrol has gone to slick top and striped camaros that are hard to spot. They look like this picture. And then there is the unmarked cars that have tinted windows and are impossible to spot and they look like the one in the middle of this pic.

    My Excitement For The Day

    The one thing that was drilled into my head in rookie school is you can get away with a lot of stuff as long as you can articulate to the judge/jury as to why you done it. So yea it gets followed all the time, of course that is what is told in court. Oh and the dwi saying I was talking about...

    Radar Detectors

    Yep me too. Lets have a little lesson on radar. Most modern radar units in patrol cars have a remote to them. So I leave my unit in standby when I really want to stop cars and write tickets. When I see a car I think is speeding I pick it out, estimate his speed (state says I have to) then go...

    Nitrous users...Have a small problem

    I am sure you checked this but make sure that you have the correct jets in the correct spots. I had this issue with my compucar nitrous kit. Stupid me put the fuel jets in the nitrous side and the nitrous in the fuel side. This caused the car to thrown in a lot of fuel and a little nitrous...

    My Excitement For The Day

    All of our speed devices (radar, vascar) have to be re-certed every 6mos and we have to use tuning forks when we start a shift on the radar and then again everytime we clear a traffic stop where we used radar. Not fortunate to have laser around here yet.

    My Excitement For The Day

    Damn they re-cert your speedo's in FL? I have never had that one come up before here in NC. As long as you can recite that you done exactly what the state says you have to do to pace a car in this state when you get to court then you are usually set. We also have to memorize a saying for dwi...

    Bad Day, Car Won't Fire

    Take your ignition module off and take it to a parts store and have them test it. No spark and no fuel tells me that it is probably the module and they are notorious for going without any notice.

    Cost for a 302-306 overbore?/What's it mean to balance an engine after assembly?

    Well re-using the crank all depends on how bad off it is. If it can be turned at .010/.010 or just polished then it will be fine. To a crank polished about $65 around here and the overbore is about $120 and that is with a honing with torque plates and that you def want to get done. The...

    Got Some Oiling Issues! Need Help!

    Thanks for the advice guys. I think I might have it fixed but it looks like the intake is going to have to come off cause it blew out the end seal on the back of it but that is not too major of a problem to deal with. Anyway, what I done was attached a small breather filter that is for a...

    My screwed up day

    You a firefighter? Just curious cause that is what I do on the side for fun. I work full time as a police officer and part time with emergency services and then volunteer for a all volunteer fire/rescue dept. Believe me I speak from experience when I say that some female juniors are there to...

    Got Some Oiling Issues! Need Help!

    That was what I was thinking. The thing is the breather tube was up stream from my maf not before it. My thinking was it would be better to run the smaller breather on the nipple for the old tube and then also keep the pcv valve. That should get me by without having to use the tube again...

    Got Some Oiling Issues! Need Help!

    Ok I got in the car today and noticed that the low oil light was on again. So I checked it and once again it was about a quart low. On my way to the parts store I noticed a faint smell of burnt oil like it was leaking on the header. This started a couple months ago and I wa thinking that maybe...
