I usually run 75-85 on the interstate which is 65-70 around the southeast. Usually I will make the drive down during the day, and run a little slower since more cops will likely be out...then at night I will run the trip back a little faster, since I have an idea where the traps are likely to be based on the observations from the day trip down.

OT RotaryResurrection: Just noticed your sig, that must be like the first AT->MT. Neat.
First one I am aware of in the country, possibly the world, that did not employ extensive modifications or an alternative engine swap at the same time. Mine works 100% like stock, and no one who did not know my car used to be an AT could identify it as such now by looking.

Im guilty of likeing to drive fast, so I will probly always have one.say the speed limit is 70 interstate ill drive 80-85 usually 80 unless theres not much traffic then it might be a little more. that laser star jammer would be amazing w/ a good detector combination..*drools* Just think of the extremely wealthy people out there into cars and what not. just amagine what they have in there hotrods to help evade cops *drools more* lol

Yeah V1 is great.

I have to hardwire my V1 to my domelight so its a bit hidden.

Mine is right in plain view.

I remember i was riding side by side with a state trooper for like 3 miles on route 46 and im sure as much as my car stands out, he was checking it out and me since it was day time and i had my windows all the way down.

I dont think its THAT noticeable.

The Laser Star is crap and sold by a bunch of douche bags. If you want the best laser jammer, get the Laser Interceptor.

If you want the best radar/laser detector, get the Valentine One.
