Unless that's you a block up in the white pickup, I don't see a violation.

Let me see if I can post the video, (black mustang) as I do a rolling right hand turn.

I was about to suggest that might be the case...the pic doesn't show any violation...I guess a video does.
Here's the problem I have with those damn camera...no discretion. Most cops I know wouldn't write you a ticket for such a "rolling stop" if you slowed down enough to be safe, and made a safe turn. The camera takes a pic of everyone running it, safe or not.

At $75.00 a pop I bet that is a profitable intersection.
I do have to say that had a cop been at that intersection I bet I would have come to a full stop.

Sorry dwe. It took me a minute to get my bearings looking at the picture seeing as how it appears to be in 1982 with the window louvers and all.... :poke:

With a texas summer coming up, I use what ever I can to stay cool in a black car. Beside you know, stuff always come back around. I am just ahead of the curve this time. :moon:

Nice car, dwe. Here's mine...

Nah, theyre cool. I was in a car club years back. Had a 99 GT and an 00 Camaro SS. A buddy of mine had an 02 Pewter GT with those on it. Looked pretty decent actually.

Sweet ride, like the rag top, too hot here. I did some work on the front of mine.

Do you like the 2010 or 2011?
-
I certainly like the 6-speed that comes in them. As for the look, yeah, they look like ours, but mushed a bit. Look mean, though. I have yet to see 2010 or 2011 GT or a GT500 really open up on the road.
Love the front of the car, that looks awesome.
I'll take some pics of the mods I've had done, when I get home this weekend.
I had the Ford Racing add-on packs 1 and 3 installed, which include the Shelby Exhaust, a Hurst Shifter, cold air intake, and shorty headers.

I have done the exhaust also and want to do the cold air. One thing at a time. Wife's car is ten years old and she is on my ass about getting a new one. (Can't blame her)
Please post the pics:

Serious - if you guys want to know anything about the 4.6, 5.0 or LS1 and what "wakes" them up at what RPM's, let me know. I've had each of these and can give you the DO/DO NOT's of each, what is waste/what isn't, and what I got the most out of on the dyno at the rear wheels.
On the 4.6's I can tell you a few basic things:
* Don't waste money on the cold air KIT or any kind of RAM Air intake. The K&N or Wix by itself will actually net you about the same RWHP gain which is honestly about 3-4. Yeah - its a sad reality but thats all ya get from this mod.
* Exhaust is ALWAYS the best bang for the buck with WHP. Flows sound better, but Dynomax is better on gains. Cut the cats off as well. Just be prepared for your check engine light to come on. MIL's can rid of that. Long tube headers are good too. Shortys are just a tad above the stock manifold to be honest. Plus, the long tubes sound badass.
* Power adders are your 2nd best bang for your buck. I had a 2 stage (50-75) wet Nitr Exp system on the SS and a 1 stage (75hp) on the GT. When you kick it, you wouldn't believe the difference. Just be careful. If you get the compression ratio too high or its too cold out, you will blow your manifold. I almost did this once in Reynolds, GA at test n tune.
-
If I were you, I'd go back to that location in the same vehicle. When I came to a complete stop at the redlight, I'd hold the bird finger out the window facing the camera.
That's a bullshit citation.

The video would not post, but it clearly shows me rolling through the red light. So I have no problem with it.
Your suggestion has been noted and logged for future use.

Al State Troopers are having their taking back road gayfest this week. Luckily I traversed the state last weekend without any infractions. As far as the ticket reminds me of a joke. State trooper pulls over car for rolling through a stop sign. Driver said I slowed down. Trooper pulls Driver out of car and starts beating him with a billy club, Trooper says you want me to slow down or stop. :rimshot:

The week that everyone in the state heads to Florida...excellent timing.

Drool. If you don't mind me asking, what did that cost?

Picked up the 2 stage NEx Kit for around 1K. That was back in 02. The 1 stage 4.6 kit was around 600-700. Again - around 02-03. I put them both in myself. The Mustang and Camaro have both changed a TON since then - they are now both Beasts, but in the 96-2004 time frame, that LS1 setup was hard to beat. The sheer torque it put out was unrivaled. Looking at their numbers side to side now ('11 models) - they look pretty even.

From the picture, that looks like one slow mustang. Definitely not a speeding ticket....... :popcorn:

Had to be single during this time?

A couple of yankees get pulled over for speeding by an AL State Trooper. When the trooper approaches the car, the driver says, "What's the problem?"
The trooper takes out his machined aluminum flashlight and whacks the guy across the head saying "You don't speak to a state trooper unless you're spoken to."
The trooper writes out the citation and gives it to the driver who responds "Thanks a lot."
The trooper gives the guy another dose of the flashlight and says "When you address a state trooper, you finish your sentence with the word 'sir'."
He then walks over to the passenger side and whacks the passenger with the flashlight.
The passengers says "What the hell was that for, sir?"
The trooper says "I was just fulfilling your wish." The passenger says "what wish?" The trooper says "Y'all wouldn't have gotten 100 yards down this road before you'd have said to your friend, 'I wish that son of a bitch would have hit me with that flashlight', so I fulfilled your wish."
