story for EVERYONE...SPEED!

coming from a aprty at UGA...it was 3am....i was driving with 2 of my friends in the car.....i had not seen how fast i could go since getting the injen greddy catback and my 18" racing hart's (which are lighter than my my stock 17's).....i made it up to 100 without flooring in a very short time..then i floored it...and i got to 137....NO LIE...and then the limiter kicked in.....it was crazy ..i thought my car had messed up or something......that was amazing......being lowered helped...because the car handled very well at that speed.....

Ouch, which state do you live in? If your record was clean, then you should have been able to get off for less than that??

After all of that did the ticket get retired?

I assume you were on 316

I know that road is nice and open, but be careful, it's out in the woods and I've driven back late at night many times and seen lots of wildlife - deer, a fox, some dogs on the road. If you hit one of those at 100, it's not gonna be pretty for the animal or your car (assuming you keep control of it)

Also, cops like to hide out all along there. It gets worse when you hit Gwinnett County since there's a huge police station in Lawrenceville on 316, but they hide all up and down that road sometimes even late at night like that.
