    i have the 969 i think it is, and it's awesome.
    it picks up vg2, spectre one, k, ku, ka, x, and four different pro laser signals, so it's more than enough for me. plus it has a built in compass, a dimmer for night driving, auto off so you don't have to worry about it draining your battery if you don't turn it off yourself, and city and highway modes.
    i don't see any reason to spend more on a valentine or a passport but if i was going to get a more expensive one, i'd get the passport.

    hopefully that helps lol

    its self control as in where and when you can speed and "drive fast" and be reasonable with your speed.

    So why don't you just exercise your self control right into a fucking brick wall and end yourself so you won't infect anyone else with your stupidity? That would be a great public service that you could provide. Moron. Make sure you're alone so it's only your worthless body dying in the street and not a normal person. Later, QD.

    Who said anything about racing, dummy? Are you seriously referring to me as being dumb? Lolol. I bet. Me pissed? What do I have to be pissed about? Life's good. I'm cool. You're the whiny little bitch with all the problems. Crying about how you have to speed because you have an (allegedly) fast car.

    Do you honestly believe that between the two of us, people are going to think I'M the dumb one? For once be realistic and answer that honestly. Later, QD.

    99% of the time, a law abiding citizen doesn't need to be protected from police.

    That is like saying you need a smoke detector on your head to make sure you don't burn yourself when you get that feeling like you just wanna stick your head in a bonfire to light a cigarette.

    So you want to stop getting tickets? But, you still wanna keep doing the same shit? Save some money and stop doing all that and you won't need help finding a radar.

    yeah radars are a waste of money, most dont actually work, plus by the time it registers its already way to late, the cop see's you and has your speed. so the best one you can use is stop driving fast do that thing called the "Speed Limit"

    Just an idea, but why not save your money and lower the risk of injuring other people who are able to maintain something called "self-control" and stop doing stupid crap. Doesn't that just make sense?

    So how is having a radar going to help you not get caught drifting? You know the radar wont tell you if a police officer is coming right?

    if the cop has his radar on, then it will tell you. before he sees you.

    just to let know.
