That sucks man. Best piece of advice, GET A LAWYER!
+1 Get a good attorney and GL.
Get a lawyer and delete this thread just to be safe. Not good to post this type of information on a public forum.
WOW!!! I thought I was the only one this unlucky! About 7 years ago this happened to me when I was driving home from work in my MR2 Turbo. Guy I worked with wanted a ride home and just wanted to see what the little car would do. Open highway, 11pm at night, no one on the road, I take it up to 110mph in a 55 - yes I was stupid - Police man hit me with laser and off to jail. My buddy drove my car back to my house, notified my new wife, only married a year at the time that I was in jail and needed to be bailed out. She shows up to the jail, sits outside for 3 hours before they will let her bail me out; needless to say she was not happy.
Got a lawyer, waste of money - the judge had no pity, only reason he didn't take my license is because I had no prior tickets of any kind in my life ever, instead I did received a 1 year suspended sentence license revocation. In other words, if I was stopped or ticketed for anything in that year my license would have been yanked for a year.
Cost me $2600.00 bucks in all - $650.00 was the lawyer and she new that there was nothing she could do to help. She just took my money. Hope you have better luck. Anything over 100mph and you have pretty much no saving grace unless your lucky - I hope luck is on your side or you have some good connections in the legal system. I still feel I got off with a good deal, the judge told me that if I would have had a parking ticket I would be walking for a year and spent 3 days in jail to think about it.

To a cop, covering his ass is priority numero uno.
Recently, I was leaving a bar and had a bit too much to drink. There were five cops loitering outside the bar, so I asked one to call me a cab. He agreed. When the cab arrived, one of the other cops screamed at me to get in the cab. Actually, he said "GET IN THE CAB YOU F*GG*T".
I was taken aback. I'm a member of the US military and was discussing this with one of the other officers. To say I was surprised is a colossal understatement. I responded to the officer.
"Sir, have I done something wrong?"
"I said get in the cab, you (slur)".
"Huh? Sir, what have I done to make you so angry?"
*ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZTTTTTTTTTTTT*
I've been hit with a Tazer X-26 before (in training), but never TWO simultaneously. It was unpleasant. Nor was it pleasant when, after I hit the concrete, the officers continued to "subdue" me with traditional stun guns. I was arrested, booked, and charged with public intoxication and resisting arrest. I was refused both breathalizer and blood alcohol tests.
The officers that actually assaulted me were not mentioned on the police report. When I inquired about their names while arrested, I was told to "shut the f*ck up".
No lawyer in a 50 mile radius would even DISCUSS my case. Nor did the FBI care when I called, because I didn't have the offending officers names. ("Um, sir, isn't that part of the investigation YOUR job?")
In summary, I will never trust a police officer again, thanks to the Clarksville Tennessee police department. If you are a law enforcement agent and have a problem with that, please direct all commentary to the Clarksville PD.
PS: I know this story doesn't involve a moving violation, but the same PD gave me a ticket for an illegal u-turn... on a deserted 4 lane road during the day. I wasn't given a rational reason for the ticket. I looked online at the TN state penal code, and found that what I had done was indeed legal. When presented this information, the city DA said "well, the CITY has a code that makes ALL u-turns illegal". I asked where this information was posted, and he told me it wasn't. You had to come to the city court to get it.

While I am generally in agreement that honesty is the best policy, before someone quotes you, you may want to gingerly edit/delete your first post until after all this is settled. Such things as "I know I am guilty" won't help your cause if it somehow gets spread too wide.
If someone wants to shoot me I don't hand them any bullets.:smile:
Just a thought. Come what may, good luck, man.

So were any of the prostitutes hott?
for something like this, no harn in posting.....
ALEX VS the state, in speeding...
not ALEX VS ACURA
he is NOT going to get out of it,
Alex, wait on a lawyer for now...goto court, plead the not guilty, ask for a trial date....they will then have you speak with the prosecutor...expalin to this person thatyou know it was wrong, you have never done this before, and need to keep you liscense. explain to this person that you have no problem with the fines and such but jail and DL suspention are not an option due to the nature of your income (dont say your a ceo...just that you work parking cars!!). dont whine, or beg...just work it as you would a buisness deal, without being rude or pushy......99% chance your get some points and a fine, maybe a suspended sentance of jain and DL suspention....It should work out OK as the prosecutor hasplenty to do, one less court day is fine by him..and he still wins cause he gets the fines paid which is what he wants anyway. If the guy is unwilling to discuss this to an acceptable resolve, call your lawyer...he may not make it better, but he will not make it worse. I would not have the lawyer there from the beginning because the court dosnt want to show EVERYONE they can be soft
but just you, they may show.FWIw i have done this many times, i just wish i had learned the steps earlier...yes it does cost more in fines, but pay to play i guess...still cheaper than jail and not driving

DAMN ALEX!!!! No wonder you didn't answer your phone that weekend I called. I was there hanging out.
Good luck with that. If you need to remove the car you can bring it to SC.

Didn't I read in your AKA Rally thread that you had a Laser Star diffuser installed? I guess it doesn't work???

Honestly I use to work for the City of Atlanta in a pretty high up position when I was younger. I am relatively a good kid and most people know that. I hope I am able to call a few people in the atlanta legal system and call in a few favors.
Yes I was wrong and Yes I am sure EVERYONE on here has broken triple digits in their NSX at one point or another. If you have not, then you need to get rid of your car!
and David F...you're sick. The prostitutes were transgender...
There was one cute girl who was getting released at the same time as me. She had a DUI 2 days prior and she didnt have a ride home. I thought about helping her but all I wanted to do was to get home and get a shower without worrying about dropping the soap!

I rushed to put it in so I removed it to do it over...
Ironic huh?
get legal help trust me a lawyer will make a world of difference. if you dont get a lawyer u are looking at loosing ur license for a least 6 months. i got a ticket for going 160+ in a 55 and reckless driving, evading a peace officer and my lawyer was able to drop the charge to only a reckless driving. so good luck on ur ticket and delete this tread
Yuk.:redface: Good luck BTW. Can't tell you how many countless times I've ran triple digits on Sam Houston tollway.
I feel the pain for you. For everyone who is on Prime, we talk NSX is slow and has no power and want to put mods. In reality, how fast can we drive on the freeway(unless you drive it on track everyday)? To me, NSX has enough power and it looks sleek, that so I care.
Hire a lawyer, good luck.

Wait until your insurance company gets hold of the info. 
Sorry to read about this...
I agree that it is not in your best interest to admit guilt on a public forum..I would remove the pertinent information from your posts ASAP!
Good Luck

What world is that? The manhole? The erectum? Exotic car road rallies?
:biggrin:Well actually if you were in county jail, you were probably sitting there next to other Reckless Drivers, Drunks, and petty criminals... most of whom also got contacted during a routine t-stop...
That's not even fast. Has anyone taken their streamliner out for a jaunt on the freeway yet? I believe the official record stands at 268 mph in a MB W125 from 1938 if you can believe that.
Almost 6 hours huh. WOW. How did you ever make it?
That's always the way it works. As Doc mentioned... with the full motor build behind you... how about another $200 for the track day? In hindsight... you could have bought plenty of seat time for $1800 plus whatever the attorney is going to cost you.
You'll probably be ok with some representation. Take your comments offline; the internet is not the place.
Some lessons maybe more expensive than others; and few are free. Take away that you got yourself in trouble, not lovefab... and the track is the proper place to open it up and play.
Cheers,
John
I don't think you can blame the "LoveFab" turbo somehow it's connected to your foot :tongue: J/K sorry for that but you did do it. I'm not going to preach as I've done some stupid $hit too........just lucky didn't get caught :smile:
