Who am i?
Hey everyone huge fan of all things Top Gear and G419 so I figured I would join so I can add m 2 cents.
I am just a guy in his mid twenties with a very intering hobby to do with cars. I am a police counter measures enthusiasts. I take my free time when I am not studying as a grad student to research, review and test out radar detectors, laser jammers, and other counter measures. I have developed this unique hobby is I have averaged 16,000 miles per year since I got my car(66k and now at 132k over 4yrs) and I am constantly driving long distances on highways so I need protection. To notable non-stop trips were from NYC to VAIL, CO, and NYC to Southwest VA.
The car which I tasked myself with "stealthing-out" is a:
'00 Volvo S70 GLT SE in silver
--iPd Sport Exhaust
--iPd Strut Brace bar
--iPd Mesh gril
--EuroSport Intake
Stealth Modifications
-Valentine 1 & BEL v995 radar detectors
-----I only ever use one at a time and just keep the other as back up
-Laser Interceptor Quad laser jamemr (2 heads up front and 2 heads in the rear)
-----I have tested my set-up with all the laser guns in the USA and not one can get a speed reading on either the front of rear of my car. In the business it is know as JTG and JFG performance. I also own my own laser gun to verify that my performance is still JTG and JFG
-Garmin c550 GPS Navigation w/Trapster and XM NavTraffic
-----I use Trapster to alert my of the Ususal police hiding spots and as a back up camera notifier
-Cheetah C100 GPS Speed/Red Camera Detector
-----Trapster tends to give false camera alerts so I use this to give me bonifide Speed/Red light camera alerts
-Galaxy DX-949 SSB/CB Radio w/ Wilson 500 Antenna
If I am not in my Volvo which I primarily use for highways I am driving my '93 Toyota T100 with an SR5 off road package. (Did I mention its stick shift?)
