I be playing paintball most of the day and I'll probably need to do a few other things. Anyways, I may be able to stop by in the evening, if I can't I'll just see everyone at the AutoX on Sunday.

Good news, guys! I just found out that this sunday's autocross is an extended course! This means we get to use part of the runway at the airport that we AutoX at, making the runs well into the 70 or 80 seconds mark!

I've gotten moved into my apt. in bellefonte, and everything is coming together. What I need to know is exactly how many people plan on showing up. And if anyone wants/needs to crash at my place, lemme know. Well, the crashing at my place number needs to be more accurate, I guess

Either way, Confirm in the thread if you're coming.

Anybody coming up past Harrisburg that can loan me some good FC or FD ignition coils, ignitor, or plug wires?

I'd go to the meet, but the car's not running right

... anyone got an inspection sticker I can borrow? I'd love to come over from Harrisburg, but i JUST started working again, and the damn thing won't be inspected for a few more weeks. I only got to legally drive it 5 days so far (the 5 after i bought it).

Alright, i'm assuming that noone is coming, so I'm going to call off the "official" meet. If someone is still interested in crashing at my place for the night, and wants to meet up, call my cel phone, 570-974-1786, and we'll work something out

Yeah, but the one business on the street behind my house is using the police and municipalities to harass the residents, so they'll move and the guy can buy out the block. When I had to move it after being told that I couldn't keep a covered car on my lot (which they coudln't provide me a reg for, and my congressman has been contacted), the guy called the cops on me. there were 4 comin down my street the other way when I headed out. I got the car moved, but it's definitely getting inspected before I drive it. I'm just glad everyone in my house has a 100% clean criminal record, and the cops like us 'cause people's houses have been searched w/o warrant on this block before.

No, not speeding...it says "Disobeyed a highway sign (25 MPH)", he said it looked like I was racing... i might have been going 30
I guess an RX7 driving behind an Eclipse is racing? If he would have followed us to the highway it may have been true, but even still, I would have only been racing for about 5 seconds assuming I would have to wait for 3 to get off the on ramp... eh either way, he threatened to impound my car, I don't think it's possible for me to disobey a highway sign in a residential area but eh, I suppose it's fair to assume that a highway somewhere has a speed limit of 25 and Stop signs at each intersection....oh and most importantly, people driving on it

basically in the end all he really did was tell me my car looks fast...and write me a court summons

You need to fight it on those grounds specifically. I was involved in a case where we were cited with "Unlawful persons or objects hanging from vehicle", which was bollocks because the people were definately locked in the trunk. We fought it on tat point, and it was found in our favor.

The proper charge would have been "disobeying traffic control signs". You've got em.
