yeah, photo radar sucks big time. i've never gotten a ticket, but know a lot of people that have. by law they have to post a sign a little before the van w/ the photo radar, but it still gets a lot of people.
another "cute" thing they do here is red light photo. basically if you run a red light in a couple of select intersection (28th & arapahoe, 28th & canyon for you brian-in case you didn't know. i think their are others, but i don't know of them). the man is just holding us down.

i heard about the 28th & arapahoe one... didnt know about the 28 & canyon one. i remember seeing a sign on 28th that said photo radar ahead.
once, just before the *really* big hill on the denver 36 turnpike coming from boulder, i saw a big ass tan photo radar van. i dont think there was any sign warning me. by the time i realized it was a photo radar van it was too late and I saw a flash of light coming from the camera :P
fortunately for me, i had taken my front license plate off ... for aforementioned reasons :smoker2:

Nothing wrong with red light cameras. There is NO excuse for any (non-left turning) car to be in the intersection during a red light...if you can't stop in time you're going to fast. Anyway...
Those sound like driving gloves. These are racing gloves. :D:D:Dhttp://www.ompracing.it/prod/images/ib712n.gif
Got myself a blue pair for auto-x and lapping.

sure, but are they genuine Italian leather hmmm? :o
how much were those anyway? and where did u get them? and do you really use them? those might not fare so well on my leather-wrapped steering wheel.

Probable genuine Italian suead (?). And yes I use them when I'm auto-x'ing and hot lapping. Works really well on my leather wrapped wheel. I wouldn't wear them on the street I'd look like a total weed! :D
