isnt it automatic loss for 6 months for over 140km/h anywhere, plus the 6 points loss and over 40kp/h is 6 months as well!

unlucky dude, but this will go to court anyway i would think.. then it's up to the judge!

seriously you got no chance, beter make up a story get a few witnesses and go to court, its your best bet, and also fork out some money for a good barister about 5 grand and you should be able to get off with a fine.

read it and weep my friend (keep in mind that once you exceed 130kph regardless of speed limit, there is not set disqualification and penalty. The judge will deal with it as he see's fit).....

 More than 45 km/h                      

6 months (minimum)

 

and manwhor3 - what possible justification could you have for doing 140 in a 70 zone?? that is just absolutely ridiculous... if you do that, i HOPE that you get caught.

Got done doing 140 in Homebush Bay Dve on saturday nite...

6 Point and $1559...

Anyone know what kind of suspension this atracts?

the amount of cops on sat night was unbelievable

on the M5 between bexley north and king georges rd, they set up a massive RBT unit with round 10 cop cars lining the M5 over 1km.

the result, a truck stop that was transformed in a parking lot with people caught waiting to get towed.

i passed it a 1am, my girlfried passed it at 5am, they were still there.

come on, give the bloke a break.  

Seriously fellars, the track is great for going a bit fast, but it's sorta hard on a uni student budget.

Are you serious? so being a uni student and being poor is supposed to justify driving double the speed limit on a public road?

its like that every saturday night from about mid night till morning, usually waiting for those people who think they can drink and drive from the city home.

not that this is gonna help but my friend actually got done doing 100 in a 50 zone.. according to the rta he should have had his license suspended. However there was no proof that he was actually doing it.. as in the cops didn't provide anything so he got the $1500 fine the points but no suspension of license?!?

Bad luck man but was pretty silly you must admit,still in crazy mode from friday night ehh...although i doubt anyone here can say they havent done it before like *cough friday night cough* you will learn your lesson though dude jsut the hard way..lucky you didnt lose control or hit anything....things can always be worse. I learnt just how stupid drink driving was the hard way and rolled my last car a vn commodore..i was the only one in the car and it was late at night with noone around so noone was hurt..things can always be worse, since i havent even looked at a drop of alcohol if im driving within the next 8 hours,im sure you will now never even think about going over speed limit...its just not worth it.

Thats my 2c dude btw i was VERY lucky to only get 6 months suspension and believe me you spend that time riding your bike thinking f%^k breaking the law again!

    • Nah, I think the current user name suits me pretty well
    • Ooo, quite aggressive! I hope there'll be a professional taking photos on the trackday that you can get. Should look great there!
    • I think a lot of you hit the real issue, these brands aren't making cars at a competitive price. Lucky that Foxxconnnn didn't buy Nissan otherwise the cars would be built by 13 year olds doing 15 hour shifts like iPhones. This reminds me of British Leyland. 5th largest global manufacturer in 1968, collapsed by 1975 with only a couple of brands escaping to be owned by Chinese brands today. Along they way they vacuumed up MG, Jaguar, Daimler, Rover, Land Rover, Austin, Morris, Wolseley, Mini, Triumph, Riley, Alvis,  Yes, they had other problems but the basic issue was the wrong production (and therefore retail) price. If you are a car manufacturer and you haven't noticed China coming, its already too late.

    • I can't help with the clearance question, I've always taken my machine shop's advice on that. It is worth considering that a shop that does that every day for road cars will be looking for as good as they can get off the shelf, not perfect. If you want more careful race style "blueprinting" then you need a race shop to measure/machine the engine. I do have an opinion on line boring the block though....don't do it unless you have to. The crank centre moves higher but the oil pump stays in the same place when you line bore the block.
