I posted this in the 3000GT forum but then thought it should be posted here.

I was driving my 3000GT SL for probably the last time before it's sold (don't worry, I'm getting a VR4 before next summer) and the backwoods roads are soooo much fun around there, ups downs and all types of curves all in a senic setting by a river, and no one around! So needless to say I had a lot of fun driving around but I had a little run in with the police (he was probably the only one in 40 miles), I was at the only intersection for miles and decided to test my shifting skill with a bit of aceleration down the straight away ahed, so I flored it and got a good launch withought any weel spin and wound it up to 60 and thats where I started to slow down when I see that theres a cop behind me who just caught up and turned on his flashers. I pull over of course and he gets out and makes his way to my car stopping to check out the rear end and run his finger from the spoiler to the window. Apparently the 50' wide street with 40' of grass on each side with no houses or any buildings for that matter was a 35 mph zone...... I swear I've never seen a road like that that was under 55.. of course he gave me a ticket seeing as though I was technically going allmost double the speed limit (which should have been at least a 45 zone). I don't know about other states but in new hampshire going twice the speed limit only gets you a $115 ticket lol. So should I plead guilty, no contest, or innocent lol? Obviously not innocent because I can't get back to NH to go to court! Does anyone know the difference between guilty and no contest?

Any insight into my situation (mostly just wondering the difference between guilty and no contest) would be great, also how am I suposed to show up in court (if I were in fact innocent) if I don't live anywhere near there and have since stoped using my car (so theres no insurance now)? Ohh and is there any hope of not getting points for any reason (like since it was out of state or something).
