Yeah the torque converter wouldn't be easy in a driveway but bagging and tagging everything can be done pretty easily. I laid out everything I took off the heads inside of our garage on newspaper to make sure it was all in order. Would've kept the car in the garage but my buddy and I went to get food and no one else was home to keep an eye on the car. Had the car half way in the garage because our garage is pretty much a shed and a place for the boat lol

That's not good I'm sorry to hear that man. Could be worse! Could be 180 days... Or you could've lost it completely.

I mean I would like to be sympathetic, but you were going exceptionally faster than the speed limit, and if you knew the consequences of another ticket would be this, that's even worse.

Not trying to be a jerk but there is no reason ever to grant sympathy for a speeding ticket that is that high over the speed limit. You knew what you were doing! Life goes on, losing your license for 30 days will suck, but I lost mine for a year. It really makes you feel less independent. Learn from the experience and live life! Make the best of the situation, because being sad or mad about it simply won't change it.

With great power comes the great need of responsibility.

welcome to Connecticut lol. I knew about my two tickets one of which I got rat 18, another at 20, and its been 3 years since my last ticket, so I really wasn't thinking about it, didn't even know that until I got the ticket. Anyone in CT can agree with me that cops on 95 and 91 rarely pull people over unless its 85+ as everyone speeds, when he pulled me over he asked if I knew why I got pulled over and I didn't play any games that people do was honest and polite. I am just hoping that I can delay it long enough until the semester ends, I can afford to stop going to class. He gave me a respond day in 60 days which is literally 2-3 weeks before semester ends, hopefully I can get it delayed

I bet if you get a lawyer or knowledge up a bit on the laws and regulations you could get a restricted license for work and class only. Also check to see when your tickets/points expire in your state to see if you have less points than expected.

That's what I did. Would've had a fine and community service, but got out of it with a lawyer. Spent my court date at Disney World
