Got a hefty speeding fine last night!!

That sucks, 82 GT. Don't know what to tell ya though, cause I live in a diff state. I don't know if this will make you feel better, but, in a way, you guys got it easier (pricewise). In GA, for 30 (or greater) mph over speed limit, you can be provided with a free pass to jail (though it depends on who pulls you over). Technically speaking, any speeding over limit is automatic $100. If you were caught around here for doing what you did, you probably wouldn't have gone to jail, but'd be paying a 3-$400 fine. The good thing though is that you will (at least in my county) USUALLY not get pulled over on the hwy for anything less than 10 mph over limit (unless they're doing a speed trap thing-- which they HARDLY ever do) and they don't sit in bushes where you can't see them (legally, they can't).

A friend of mine with a red 92 Z28 just got a ticket (last week) for doing 79 in a 55 on the interstate (out of all the flowing traffic, he was singled out in a laser speed trap), he'll be paying probably around $300.
