Got a ticket f***en doing 5 miles over.... I need a radar bad....I have no knowledge of them and dont know which one to get ($100-$200 Range) Can any1 tell me whats good?? I heard about the V1...Please Help F**cken cops

 

You got a ticket for only 5 over... that cop must have been an A$$.... imo

but do a search... two of the top radars here are the Passport x50 and Valentine 1

search and u will see

 

don't waste your money one a $100-$200 radar detector. you need a v1 $400 or an escort passport $349

 

Spend the bread n get the v1.!!

 

The Raiders suck!!

Oh my bad you said radars not Raiders! lol!!

 

V1 is worth the money.

Think about the return on investment!!

 

I would look into the valentine V1 ($400) or the escort 8500 x50 (299 red LEDs, $349 blue LEDs). Both offer the same performance but both have there personal perks. The V1 has directional arrows showing you where the cop is shooting the radar from. To me this is not important, just makes you stare at the cop when you are passing him. The escort can be hooked up with there optional ZR3 laser shifter.

Laser guns (different the radar) are getting more popular and once you are hit by one the cop has your speed instantly. The ZR3 shifter are a laser shifter that deflect the laser that the cop it shooting. Your escort 8500 goes off telling you if they are shooting you from the rear or front. Once you hit the mute button on the detector stops the laser shifting which allows the cop to read your speed. This allows you to slow down and allows the cop to register your speed. You need to allow to register your speed so he doesn't pull you over, this is because laser shifter are illegal in all states.

I personally have the escort 8500 X50 with the passport ZR3 shifters and love the set up. Keeps me protected from radar and laser.

 

^correct on all parts expect that laser shifters are not illegal in all states. They are band in some jurisdictions around the country. In MD its not illegal and i know plenty of friends that run it and never turn it off. Some Lidar guns can tell when they are being jammed and others just wont show a speed. But none the less getting a detector pays for its self in the long run. You will be very happy with it. As for all the arrow pointing its really not needed. Your first reaction like everyone else should be to slow down and procced with caution no matter where its coming from.

 

take that $hit to court. It will prolly get dropped. In GA only GSP can give you a ticket for doing less than 10 over.

 

well...recently i had a 91 in a 65 dismissed from court. I never even need to go to court. It's unrelated and probably will never happen again, but if you go to court and just tell them this is ridiculous, you won't have to pay anything.

 

I think you will find the following to be true, but which ever you buy, buy now, it pays for itself very quickly.

Passport 8500 and Valentine V1 should be your only choices. Prices are about the same given their respective "features"--you pay a little more for the V1 and for that extra price you get arrows telling you the direction of attack.

To some these arrows are superfluous--myself included, but other like the added functionality.

If you want to get super exotic, get a Lasar shifter (illegal in many states). More money, more function, custom install.

 

+1 on the raiders. Go CHARGERS!!!

Oh yeah get the Valentine 1. You will not be dissapointed.

 

ok im definently going with the v1 lol thanks for all the help

 

V1 will pay for itself in no time !

 

laser shifters sound pretty tite, exactly how does it work the guy above didnt explain it too good anyone else have a better explanation of how it works. Does it also do the same things a radar detector does as well?
