How do you manage to keep your licences with cars like this?

Im just wondering cause i managed to lose my license 2 times in the past year for having too many speeding tickets and this is with the boxster 987.

Ive been smarter how i drive for the past 6 monthes and havent got ticketed but once in while i like to open her up and if I get caught again it wont be good cause of my previous record there gonna wanna shut me down for good.

Maybe its time for a SUV? i hope not there pretty boring compared to these cars.

Take it to the track and let her wiggle!!
You will then realize driving fast on public roads isn't fast, safe or as fun.

Kind of agree with Trundle...unless it's the off-season and you just can't get enough of that fix!

Civilization hasn't quite hit it's high here in NC, so it's easy to move around at a nice pace.

I am a terrible driver as far as traffic laws are concerned but if you're honest and cool when you're pulled over you 'll find that you can get out of a ticket. I get tickets maybe 1/3 rd of the time I'm stopped. Guess I've also had a little bit of luck.

I follow this philosophy and have only gotten stuck with two tickets in my last five stops. One I was able to get out of with traffic school so basically 1-5. Considering what a scofflaw I am I am very happy so far.

Make sure that you ask with no uncertainty to be left off or ask if he can give you something that you can get out of. For example, in AZ I stopped carrying my proof of insurance, this allows them to cite me for not having it and I can get it tossed the next day by showing the proof to the court.

Try dry wall toggle bolts, that should work. Alternatively a 928 metal frame bracket will work too, that's Porsches solution.
Time for a radar detector.

I hear that if you're pulled over and the cop sees your radar detector you can forget about getting out of the ticket. Any thoughts?
