My friends that I was cruising with both had very nice radar detectors and they both said neither one of them went off as we passed by the cops. The cop told me he was waiting for me anyways. He said that someone had called in my license plate number and said I was racing and stopping in the middle of the hwy. Since the cop didn't see me racing he could only harrass me and give me dumb tickets like speeding in a construction zone,loud exhaust and no front license plate. I'll only take this as a learning experience and play on the street. The cop even told me if he caught me in that part of town again he would fuck my car up/tow it and arrest me. I know that he can't do this but it still isn't right that they can harrass people like that.

Resource, I saw you being pulled over by the J.B. bridge. I was coming from the IL side back to St. Louis and saw one cop w/ a second one pulling up behind you guys and you were already stopped and stuff. I looked over and saw the 7 and told my buddy that I had seen that 7 on the net before and thought I knew who's it was. Unfortunately I was exactly right it looks like. I was going to pm you and ask if it was you. I didn't see the supra though. Did he get off?? Man I hate to hear that!! The cops are usually really few and far between at like 1-2 a.m., but we saw a bunch on the way back from IL w/ people pulled over and stuff. Maybe they're trying to get their quota early in the month. Good luck w/ the tickets and stuff and for sure get an attorney unless you've got connections to someone who can get you out of it. Later, Mark
Yep that was me, did you see me laid over on the ground?

very nice win eric, i dont know how fast your car is but it must be unbelievalble. Facts on shanes car are......589RWHP and a 75shot of nos on top of that, his best 60ft time is 1.21 with a 99mph 1/8mile which should put him at 10.2 ET. Good job on the kill?
1.21 60 foot? Damn!

There would be no reason for your radar detector to go off next to a police station, well maybe you can pick up a low level X-band. From what you wrote it sounds like you dont have very much experience with radar detectors.

RD's are supposed to protect you from "unreasonable" speeding violations. They do not offer good protection from 'instant on' radar or laser.

Radar detectors like most USER operated machines/devices are only as good as the operator. (Your keyboard for example, may have some misplaced keys.)

All in good fun. :rock:

Are you sure about the 1.21?

Resource 05-03-03 10:43 PM

Oh yeah, working on the video still. Please be patient.

If the cop really told you this, you need to go to court. All of your tickets will be thrown out, and the cop will probably lose his job. This is unlawful and is a violation of your civil rights. Hire an attorney promptly.

All of that was said. It's really my word against his and I really doubt they would beleive me. I've had bad experiences with the legal system in the past so this is really no suprise to me. I'll check with a few attorneys and see what advice they can give to me. I'm just glad I didn't go to jail.

1.21 60'? You sure about that?

I'm not sure. LTProject said that he 60 footed that time, not me. I think it was a mistype.


The supra did have Mickey Thompsons on it though when I raced him. I had Nitto 555R's.

AWDLATIN 05-04-03 12:01 AM

is the video good quality? Oh and by the way, did you get your car back?

I have seen the slip so I know that is what was posted for it....it seems hard to believe though....I am assuming the clocks were off because the 9 sec car he raced cut a .920 and ran a 9.98...so I think they are off. A .920 60' is 6-7 sec car 60's....not a 9.98 car. The rest of his slips show consistent 1.6 60' which is still pretty descent.

The dyno sheet I have is for 598rwhp@20psi w/ a 70shot for spool...and last I heard he had upped the boost to 27psi. Who knows. Good Kill either way Eric. :D

ps....and to the person talking 99mph 1/8 mile traps...the best I have seen is a 93.8mph trap. So maybe he did, but I haven't seen it yet.

They never towed my car. They were full of lies. The video should be pretty good quality but it's at night so those are always hard to see.

adamrx7 05-04-03 02:57 AM

Dude, I got a call from Liz to come down last night to Hooter's I'm glad I didnt, Hope it works out for you

So you got cuffed and shackled, but they didn't arrest you or towed your car?

Exactly.....

CowsniperRX7 05-04-03 11:37 AM

That doesn't make any sense. They were just trying to frighten you into never doing it again.

mdog33 05-04-03 12:07 PM

I didin't see you laying on the ground yet. In fact, I didn't even see a cop out of his car yet. Just you pulled over w/ the lights off and the first po already there and the other coming up behind the two of you(lights and sirens blazing of course). I'm sure the only reason the harassed you like that was to scare you. If you've got a license and are driving according to the law they can't tell you they're going to do all that to you just for being there. I have 4 police officers living on my block and all just a couple of houses down from me. I've talked to them about occasions similar to this and I've never gotten any idea that they can just tell you they're gonna do any of those things to you that they did. On the speeding thing, did you race past him and that's how he knew you were racing??? Or was it just here-say that some person called in? Oh yeah, anything happen to the supra legal wise???

Good point. Unless the Officer saw you racing, he cannot enforce it. Misdemeanor crimes need to be observed by the arresting officer. He has to have a clear and unobstructed view of the crime occurring. If it is a Felony, then they can go by eyewitness accounts. Just FYI.

Nope, we were just cruising by the cop. I saw the cop sitting there from a mile away. The playing took place about 15 minutes before I got pulled over.

Video?!

LTProject 05-04-03 04:30 PM

1.21 60ft is not a joke, he did that when he sprayed a 75shot and hit second which pointed him at the wall so he let out and got back in it for a 11.90. After that pass gateway warned him not to do it again till caged. He was running almost a slick from what i know. If its sunny on tuesday come to gateway hes gonna make one full pass and get kicked out. This run should hush the crowd.

Marshall 05-04-03 04:35 PM

You realize that a 1.21 60' is 8 second car territory.
