umm nah it was on the way back from southend bout 12am, after some traffic lights near Basildon i think, going slightly up hill. I feel gutted because there was loads of cars behind me and they should of flashed there lights to alert me, (which i normally do if i see a driver going to fast approching a speed cam).

Just Hoping for the ticket to not come through, was planning on buying a Type R or Audi A3 1.8T

Thing that Pisses me off most is, i was driving safe and slow all the way there and all the way back and didnt race anyone when there was a chance, but days when i do race and drive over 100mph i dont get sh!t.

me too

then he says he's payin 1250 a year now under his parents name

and i dont understand when you say, "Thing that Pisses me off most is, i was driving safe and slow all the way there and all the way back and didnt race anyone when there was a chance, but days when i do race and drive over 100mph i dont get sh!t."

if you was caught going over 100 you'd get evan more fucked

so why does it piss you off that you got caught 10mph over the limit rather than caught dangerous driving over 60mph over the speed limit

I'm pissed off that i got caught at 117mph. Should've been the 140-150mph that i was doing 5 mins earlier.
