not been caught once, i nearly always stay at 5-10k over the limit,
worst i've done is 130k in a 90 zone.
it makes it easier if u know where the cops park

Haha, i have a set of totally fcuked front rotors from the time when i saw a white car come over a crest in the distance (a few kays away admittedly) whilst i was going *quite fast* (avatar pic and then some)

Too true! I myself have been seen by 2 parked patrol cars (same time) doing fairly excessive speeds. Never got caught tho, i guess they didn't get time to see the plates

I've been driving (legally) for only 2 years now, but i'm already starting to get over the hoon element of things, as i think someone else mentioned. Yeah, i speed occasionally, but not insanely, i'm just sorta over it. My car is no road rocket, and i've had it to it's max speed so many times i can't even count in the past, but it just bores me now, and i have no desire to speed for pleasure. Boredom => frustration however is another issue j/k

If you have the urge to speed or whatever, i find loud music helps, then it's easy to switch on the cruise and it's all good! Anyone else find this?

Oh yeah, my record's clean too :)

Cheers,
Jared

Iv'e had this happen twice before, they must think it's real funny. But hell so would i. Remmeber one night on the way home from work i had some clapped out ricer with 4 1/2 zorst trying to race me from behind. Came through my rouadabout flatstick 1st to 2nd and a cop coming the other way turned around in a hurry with lights flashing. Pulled into my drivway in a hurry and he rolled past at walking pace and hit his siren just to let me know hw was there.

Re: Have you ever been caught speeding?

got caught once on my P's, 25 over, Then got caught in my old gt with botch riding shotgun, had to slow for a corner and got caught 25 over. I was happy with that as the previous straight we were floating around the 120mph mark, **** that thing flew! Had license for 10 years, 2 tickets, Thats one good thing about living in the country, less highway cops.
Don't bother telling me how stupid I am as I already know
