What I am saying is if you were "throwing roaches out the window" and "hiding the bag" a $500 street racing ticket should be the least of your worries. Hopefully you weren't under the influence, I assumed it possible being that you had "roaches" in the car. IF this is a figure of speech that I missed my sincere apologies.
Also 87 in a 35 is a little crazy. I have read several stories on here, and in the news and papers, where innocent bystanders were killed in similar situations. In that it was a 35mph speed limit it would appear to be a rather populated area making high speeds even more dangerous.
Maybe I was a bit harsh, my apologies for that. But sit back and think about it a second, it could have been much, much worse than a $500 street racing ticket.
Your only hope for beating this thing is if a lawyer can get you off on a technicality issue. The speed is going to speak for itself in a judges review of the situation.
There is a time and a place for street racing. We all know it is dangerous not only for ourselves but others as well. We have a choice in putting ourselves in harms way, the people around do not.
I sincerely hope you get to keep your stang and that you won't have to go to jail, chances are you won't see any jail time though. This race just didn't seem like a wise choice and if all you get out of it is a $500 ticket than you are lucky.
