You can take 301 over to I-75. It's 4 lane but kinda slow. If you go that route you MUST watch for speed traps. Rated the worse in the country. Speeds can drop from 60 to 50 to 40 in about 100 yards. And cops are watching. As long as you do the speed limits you'll be fine.

Yes there are lights but there are long stretches when you can get up to highway speeds. The above poster is correct. Some of the most notorious speed traps in the country are off of 301 but if you follow the speed limit when you get into those towns, you will be just fine.

They even have signs on 301 saying, speed trap ahead!!

sea foam is done!
Deep Creep and my wife were a big help! she never stalled and i was almost 100% sure she would.

I did not see any smoke till I pulled out of the drive after about a min. for the idle to go back to normal. After about a mile to the highway, i did not see any smoke but i do have 20% tint on my back window so could not tell any way.

I still have about 1/2 a tank with sea foam in it, so let the cleaning continue. I'm going to run it till till the gas light comes on.

1 more thing, I live in Tampa and I have a Valentine One, and just so you know, if you have a radar detector, I've seen so far 2 speed traps that used Lazer. So you really don't get much of a warning on that. once it was the the Causeway bridge FL60, another time it was on US-19 northbound in Clearwater not too far from my house right after a bridge junction.

enjoy the trip

phil did u send the valentine out for the update? the new updates really made the unit a lot better.

Not in the past year no. but I checked and it says i have their latest and greatest..

another annoyance with it is the stupid infinity speed sensivite cruize control keeps triggering my 'lazer' alarm too.

but it's the nature of the lazer that you don't really get 'warning' like you do with regular radar, like the X, K and Ka bands.

yea.....i got the euro mode stuff installed on there too and i dont know if it makes a difference but i know for sure i was gettin those suckers nailing other people while i was driving to fl the other day.
