I was out twice today on popular twisties in my area. Everyone seemed to be driving very much aware of the increased police crackdowns. Although, oddly, I didn’t see even one OPP cruiser in my travels.
On my way home from ZR’s this afternoon I spotted three OPP cruisers, doing what I assume was radar enforcement, on the 407 between the 404 and the 427.
I wish I was as mellow as the rest of you. I still love my need for speed. Almost got I trouble today, it was a good reality check. Geared down 2 gears going west on 401 off of 400 and I gave it my all. I was alone not racing and let off right away only to see an OPP on my bumper. My heart sank and I thought for sure there goes my car and license. Cop scared the shit out of me then drive off. Scary shit.

I’m not slow, I just like the way your bumper looks
I was in Vaughan and North York and seen the same amount of police on the roads and highways as always.

Come to one of our road course lapping days, that will make you understand why its not even close to fun to hammer down on public streets (especially these days).Originally Posted by Zutz2v
Too much can go wrong on public streets, and little to no upside is the reward. I generally only squeeze it from a dead stop and let off once I hit about 20 over and then shut it down and cruise. IMO, the fun is feeling the power off the lights and not carrying big speeds (which any modern vehicle can do these days anyway).

How much were the tickets?
This is exactly how I drove my boosted 06. I'd let the blower sing up to a 3 point ticket and then settled down and set the cruise control. Not one ticket in 7 years of ownership.Come to one of our road course lapping days, that will make you understand why its not even close to fun to hammer down on public streets (especially these days).

Unfortunately I wasn't much faster on track days. Lol
Any vehicle these days will kill me on highway speeds. My cars a quarter mile car at best. But I will definitely come to a track day. See if I can tame the beast in the corners without murdering an innocent crowd lmaoCome to one of our road course lapping days, that will make you understand why its not even close to fun to hammer down on public streets (especially these days).

Once you get a taste of road course racing, it’s easy to get hooked

They were doing radar at 8am on the 407 today. Dad and I were the only two vehicles on it...
