Well this morning i got my first speeding ticket in over 3 years, ironically it was the 2 days after my car got tuned and i put down 363 hp i was going 69 in a 40 and the funny part is I had no idea i was going that fast, i downshifted into 3rd and never went over 4k rpms passing this guy and next thing i know i have a cop on my ass saying i was going 69

So i guess I'm still getting used to the new powerband, I guess i could get pissed about it but hell I guess i needed a good reality check

Sir is there an emergency. Why were you going so fast.


Well you see sir my car is now so fast that I can not help it but go over the speed limit.

Okay sir I'll give a warning. Being that it wasn't your fault.

I'm lucky I have not been pulled over yet, the boost sure makes a huge difference. Yesterday a guy on bike thought he could get by me at a light. No shot for him, hit 2nd gear and off I go, up to 60 in a blink of the eye. But I was only 5 over the limit.

I remember after driving for over 10 years I finally gotten my first speeding ticket a couple years ago. Funny thing was it came one week before getting my KB installed. I normally would be upset, but I was so excited over getting the car blown. I really didn't give a shyt and shrugged it off as if it was nothing lol

lol thats why i am sorta afraid to get boost. I know i will then really have a lead foot. I had never gotten pulled over in my life until i bought my bike lol but i only got 55 in a 45 and he dropped it down to failure to obey a highway sign anyways because i pulled over immediately and was polite.

but in reality he cut me a break cause i didnt run from him lol. i was over a hill and waiting at the bottom before he ever got behind me with his lights on. I was sitting waiting on the side of the road with my papers in hand cause i knew he was coming after me. but i guess it was my time to get pulled over there cause minutes earlier i was dragging knee doing 130 lol in a 45.
