Pretty much I'm really not looking to get anymore.
In my area, no one cares about the fine. It's the points they go to court and fight. 80% of the tickets would never get challenged if it was not for the points.

yea I took the online drivers improvement class (for tickets under 30MPH over) so that points wouldn't be applied to my license. I could go on a rant on how something they enforce and others things they don't around here but I won't its kind of like a wast of breath lol.

I went to court for mine. Judge lowered it to 75/65 from 89/65. From a 5 pointer to a 2 pointer. Still had to pay the original $270 fine plus court fees.

Honestly, I got out of two speeding tickets in 2 weeks by telling the cop I had to use the bathroom really really bad. I asked if he could please give me my ticket ASAP so I could get to the bathroom. One cop said I can get out of the car and go right there off the side of the highway. I told him it wasn't possible, I needed to take a #2. That cop didn't write me a ticket. The second cop wrote a ticket and put a notation that driver had to use the bathroom. When I got to court they read that in court and said they had no problems letting that ticket go.

Those had to be a 5 or 10 over kind of tickets for that to work. In my case that wouldn't of worked for me lol.

I was wondering if that rear strut tower brace actually makes a difference. Does anyone have any input? I tried searching.

Since our windshields are made of playdough apparently, I scheduled an appointment with Safelite for Wednesday afternoon to come out and fix the rock chip in my windshield.

On the plus side, my TOM's tails should be here in the next day or two.

Switched to Michelin Pilot Super Sports on the stock rims. WOW what a difference! So so so sticky, and I've noticed a ton less wheel hop when cornering quickly. So planted, although the rear end doesn't come loose as easy. So much more stability at highway speeds too (tires seem to flex a lot less).
