    Ticket for running too fast?

    I wonder how he cheated on his PD exams to get onto the South Carolina police force. This guy should not be allowed anywhere near firearms either..

    That's pretty funny. Technically, i wonder if humans fall under the same category as an automobile.
    If that's the case, could someone get a ticket for excessive acceleration, exhibition of acceleration, running while intoxicated, no signal for turning.
    The moonwalk must be considered burning out, lol.

    This is ridiculous, this officer is applying auto citations against humans. Civilians have their own specific charges, right?

    anyone side with the officer?

    an automobile is a dangerous weapon, or could be and has been used as one, but a human running isn't the same thing.

    That's like getting a ticket for shooting a nerf dart gun in the city and being cited for discharging a firearm, lmao!

    I for one will never have to worry about running to fast and getting cited for it, hahahha.

    haha, just thought it would start a funny debate.

    Did you get the turbo kit I sent over? Did it fit?

    I have seen getting a dui riding a bicycle. I wonder if they would do that for running. I should try it.

    I'm holding off for a 3 day weekend so I can invite everyone in the DFW area over for a build day. I'm looking over all the parts to make sure we can get it done in a day. I'll do the little time consuming stuff before the build weekend so we can have it done that day. Can you PM me the wiring changes I need to make for the MAP sensor? Also, are you going to send me a tune update or are you expecting my non-tuning arse to figure it out? Have you done one on a NNBS GMT900 before? I have major concerns on the PCM since it doesn't seem to update the fueling instantly like the 411 PCM does.

    ya, it's gonna take a weekend, especially with that T6 turbo, it's heavy!

    wiring info on the way.

    ya, check your tune repository we setup for you, you should have all the files you need. be sure to use the automated tune feature, so it fills in the cells for you, it helps out a lot!

    we got another '08 truck coming in next week for a turbo setup, but it's a baby compared to yours.

    i don't think you'll have any issues supplying fuel to the engine with your new fuel system, but we'll have to see what the pcm thinks about it.

    send some pics!

    What would be the risk, running over someone's foot?
    GET OUT OF HERE WITH THAT RICER MATH!

    I'll start a build topic once I get started on it.

    Three day? Looks like only a one day install. Oh well, at least it will be a part breaker. I'll get with you later on a live tune date so we can tweak it at the track, I can't afford any more speeding tickets. Two in one year jacked my insurance up $50 a month.

    This guy would get a ticket for a head-on collision.



    This guy would get a ticket for non-street legal modifications.



    These guys would get a ticket for running under the influence:
