what did you do to your Sonic today?

[Crazzyboy]

Ohhh purdy.
well today I drove her....thats about it. Put up my scangauge last night. Exciting stuff here. Not real impressed with the mpg so far, but I am being forgiving as its been 115 here and I'm only on my third tank

The heat has taken its toll on my mpg this week too. Just filled up and only got 30 mpg! :sadbanana:

Received my first speeding ticket ever. I figure the cops were just being extra pricks today since the one that got me tagged me after merging onto the highway and speeding up to change lanes into the hov lane. In which I got distracted for 2 seconds while foot was on accelerator and ended up letting off at 79 in a 65 zone right in front of the cop in the median FML. End result was he gave me a ticket even though it was my first offense ever. Definitely going to my hearing to fight it since the cop was a jerk about it. Side note is I was very stressed this morning with the fact my I was driving my sisters dad to hospital where she just had a serious surgery. So yeah was not a happy camper all day.

That stinks. I have not gotten a ticket in the sonic yet
I have been pulled over but been really lucky.

I'm knocking on wood.. I've been accused of squealing tires frequently.. I've never heard it but the guy who services my car says I do all the time lol.

I accused him of being jealous and if it made him feel better he could squeal them next time he took it for service.

 

[AdorableKaren]

Lol is squealing tires an offense for a ticket?

 

[sonic007]

Cop was a jerk for doing his job? Hmm. Good to know.

Getting caught sux, but 80 in a 65? What was he supposed to do?

He could get in trouble for NOT citing you.

I got a violation of basic speed law (exhibition of speed similarities are too numerous to mention) when I was 17 for accelerating too fast. never broke 40, in a 45, but apparently I got there way too fast.

 

[AdorableKaren]

Waiting for the rain to stop I wanna drag tonight. Even if I could just get two runs in I'd be happy.

Also I don't mean all out burning rubber.. I think I'd hear that. And I'm pretty sure that I could be ticketed frequently for exhibition of speed.. I like that 2nd gear rocketship WAYY too much.

Ahaha I wish. They are only recording 1/8 times because the track is still wet

Impressive!! I still have many bruises and cuts healing from last Sunday. I did however put the car back to stock and swapped my RS suspension out with another cars. 8 hours in the garage was more than I was ready for....

 

[TheBlueBomber]
