Great..

whats wrong with that? .... I support a crack down on speeders .... what does E-RACE stand for?























now if you believed that I have a sticker that adds 2000 HP to the rear wheels on a civic for sale it's only 19.99

Umm... what happens if the cop car is moving and trying to radar... doensn't that display the combined speed of the two vehicles... so say the cop's doing 60, and you're doing 60, that means the two of you are approcaching each other at 120 km/h. Or does the radar have a tie-in with their VSS?

bbarbulo ... old systems yes the cop had to be stationary but newer systems take into account the speed of the cop car and adjust the system according....

now with that said .... it only works liek this if the car is travelling int he same direction as the cop (so he tails you and can get your speed) .. there is a radar gun out there in the states that does oncoming traffic too but I don't think it's here yet.

just curious...how do most of you feel towards the program?

do you feel that they target us with our modified cars? Giving us tickets for almost everything..

or that they are solely there to stop street racing and promote "proper racing"???

PS: They are now going nation wide it seems..they have a branch in BC..

I dunno about the Pacer program I never see them out at grass roots motorsports events (solo2 or solo 1) and all I see are cops on the public streets near the event handing out flyers stating what is legal and illegal mods to a car ...

stupid thing is the event is ussually on private property and event organizers ussually inform police of where it is I hate being grouped in with a bunch of stupid street racers just cause I race (legally) ....

This program is alot bigger than you might think, if you haven't already noticed the substantial amount of police on the roads, then you soon will! It is going to be crazy this summer, so don't give them any reason to pull you over, and you'll be fine.
