Ima,
You've been such a tit on here in the past that you will get some slagging for your actions.
Yes it was stupid, and no you won't get any sympathy.
But, for ***** sake, I'd be surprised if 90% or more of posters on this board haven't ever done the same thing
You did what you did, you took the risk and you got caught, so you have to live with the outcome and not whinge about it.
Spend your energy getting a good solicitor to help you.

Monte,
Gotta agree with you.
Theres three issues here, though.
1)Sanctamonious tossers who are holier than though and have never ever taken part in the traffic light GP
2)Those who genuinely do not speed, at all, ever (so why they drive anything with more than 60bhp is beyond me) but who have a valid comment to make about speeding in built up areas
3) Ima whatshisorhername has posted some utter cr&p on this board, and I mean utter cr&p. He/she cannot therefore expect to get anything more than grief for this.
Our cars (and yours particularly if its the Escort Cossie I think it is can reach 50 mph very quickly if restraint is not shown. Give them a boot from the lights and your in illegal speeds before you know it.
With the 4wd UK cars and the more powerful imports its very hard to spin the wheels (fronts let go first) unless high revs/drop clutch approach is used. With 2wd cars its a whole different ball game. Hell, my Integra will spin its wheels in the damp taking off in second without any real provocation. In the dry and in first traction is a real issue.
Ima's defence should be that he was taken by surprise with the power and didn't intend to spin the wheels.
Gonna have to take the rap on the speeding issue though

Oh dear, my advice is to turn up to court in an old MOT failure with no tax, wear Eminem look alike clothes, wear the baseball cap back to front like someone else suggested, then make out that you stole the Cossie. That way you should get off with a small fine at worst.
Sorry to be cynical, but thats all the courts seem to dish out to thieving scum. They come down on those who pay their way in society though.
Doing 50 in a 30 in a built up area with wheels spinning really is asking for plods attention though. Hard luck M8.

Well IMA you really shook the BBs with this on - thats normally my job (I am not the most popular on here either) but you have called all those without sympathy for you W4nkers!! That includes me of course, I have not had any run-in with you - but I detect that you are a stupid, idiotic little 17 year old who needs his mummy and daddy to slap his bottie!!
If you are older than 17 then all I will say is GROW UP!!
We choose to own fast cars, NOT to drive like complete dicks as you do - but to savour the power, the safety, the pure thrill of the machine .................... something you will grow to understand
JayDee - You singled me out for special attention, Have I ever wheelspun? Yep - whats your point?? Have I ever exceeded 30?? yep and got caught!! - whats your point?? I assume that you are saying because I have wheelspun and broken the 30mph speed limit I cannot sit in judgement??? Well I think I have every right to give my opinion based on many years of driving (more than you or IMA have been alive!!) I dont doubt that I had already grown up while you were still sh1tting nappies my boy!!
Watch out for Fat Bloke too - he is very nearly as tough as me
Good thread this aint it??
