That sounds pretty bad, and rather expensive.

We have some 'back roads' around here that are uncontrolled and they are in perfect condition! My buddy in the Nissan GTR said he got 301kph ...and I thought I had my foot in it!?

As for the front end lifting at those speeds ...im not an expert but it felt good to me ...actually felt well planted and in full control. However ...my only 'complaint' would be that the brakes seemed 'soft' at higher speeds. Again, im no expert, just my observation.

Around here we only have speed camera's ..cops to lazy to use a gun or actually monitor the roads ...so if you know where the cameras are ...well, you know the rest.

Not sure if a radar detector works on cameras? any ideas? However heres a useful app that is quite cool ...its called Trapster. I have it on my iPhone and is a 'community' run app that basically lets you 'advertise' to other users of speeds traps and other issues on the road. It's not fool proof and relies on other users for its information but there are moderators that try to make sure that the information provided is accurate. check it out ...its even promoted by the cops to encourage safe driving!

Happy Holidays Everyone!!
