Does this master plan take into consideration any pre-confessions by posting the crime on a public forum?

u should had done what my mate did. thought he got caught speeding so the same day rang up cops saying his car has been stolen. then next day told them he has it back now and asked if there had been any incidents that are connected with his registration
it probably wudnt work but u never know!
unlucky getting caught tho, im sure we all speed and if my car could go 140+ im pretty sure i would go that speed every so often.

^^ Then when they do a full investigation, and find out it wasnt stolen, he'd get bummed twice as hard.

Would they not want proof one was fitted? If so a date would be on the reciept & that date would be after the date you got caught?

You get them fitted, not sure where from but they limit the rpm in certain gears.
We have them on our Sprinters at work, the only rev to 3k until the engine is up to tempreture.

Not happy, but pointless being sad about it.. It's happened, life goes on..
I'm happy with the speed i acheived prior to seeing the camera..
Yea it's a ban for over 100, and yea i expected to be caught at a higher speed - expected it to be in the 120's..

at your feeble attempt to try and claim your cars limited to "X" MPH, so you couldnt do 117 .
Even if you got a backdated reciept, do you not think they'd question why you'd got one fitted? Also i doubt many places would back date it for you anyway, as if you tried to use it in court, they'd be hauled up and be made to give evidence in court.
