Seriously people, don't post that **** here.

Read #9: https://ls1tech.com/forums/6624641-post1.html

9. The 'Street Racing & Kill Stories' section is available for you to post your
street racing kills only.
All other posts are subject to being locked (i.e. "I
killed a deer with my car.")


I doubt that evidence will hold up in court if it is ONLY the speedo. If that is the ONLY thing you can see, they have zero proof of where it was done. Maybe he was on a dyno, or the rear on jackstands.

well i think he is more in jail because he was originally clocked @ 118, the speedo video just adds salt to the wound.

Title should be "Don't be a complete moron" instead of be careful.

Seriously, you have to be retarded to tell the cop you were making a top speed video. Completely retarded.

As for posting vids, i'll post anything without my face and license plate, and not worry about it. In the unlikely event that the cops show up at my door, it's going to be a short convo.

"I wasn't driving officer, and the video doesn't prove otherwise, so unless i'm being arrested or detained, you have a nice day."

Why do people post **** like this? Dude deserves to go to jail for being retarded.

"Yes officer I know you clocked me at 118 but here's the camera that I used to record myself going 140+ just seconds before you caught me."

The topic title should be "Use your Miranda rights" or "Don't say things to incriminate yourself." Or even "This is the wrong section and I might be as dumb as the subject of this thread!"

I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure that there's no rule stating that you have to be a moderator in order to point out the rules to someone...

Always kills me when people get their panties in a bunch over someone elses post. I prefer to keep it moving and skip to the next thread. And let the mods get all hot and bothered over it. Just me tho.

Wrong section. Give it a shot in the Lounge if there's not already a thread on this topic there.
