No we're fine Jessie. Thats only for vehicles registered in IL. Even if you don't meet WI state laws (which I believe is 50F 35R and what I have on the bimmer) they can't ticket you cuz its the responsibility of the state your car is titled/registered in.

thats good news...for us. Maybe one of these days this summer, get the midwest ppl up here and cruise. The lakefront and other places would be a great place for a "get-together" or meet or whatever!!

IL

the city just needs money so they are cracking down on it since they've previously let people get away with it... now everyone has um and they can ticket even more for more income.

..they're going to be strict in certain places and some places are gonna be the same. I have nothing to worry about in my town as I have a couple free-pass cop cards I carry around.. though I can't say the same if I drive outta my town but whatever, hopefully I dun get rolled for it again. /knocks on wood.. And Tom, I'd be careful since you got limo's all the way around..

Those tint detectors aren't a joke. They carry that up to the car, and and when you role your window down they slide it on to check it. 2 days after i got my car i went to Virginia and got a nice 50 dollar ticket. I told the cop, i just bought the car 2 days ago, and he said tough luck... I was furious!!!! I'm hoping to come up the weekend when you guys have the meet. it's such a long/boring drive...

isn't the official rule on that, is that its not an eye doc that needs to write it out, its actually your physician with a note from your optometrist?

A note no longer works in IL Tom. You need to get those new WT plates (I think thats what they're called).

well honestly if they do that then its illegal. They can't pull you over and write you a ticket solely for having tints... if they pull you over for speeding or something I'm sure they might give you shit for it but if its legal in WI, and your car is plated and registered in WI then there is nothing they can do LEGALLY. I'm sure they could try to write you a ticket for that but it would get thrown out in less than a second in court. They probably would just hope you didn't know any better and just paid it.

Yup, Mr. Chad and I have organized two meets in Milwaukee in previous years that were fantastic. Great photo opportunities by the lake and museum at the first plus a nice picnic at the lake and then the most recent one, we met at the park in a huge lot and then I invited everyone over to my place for a party. We had food, drinks, music..that's how we do a meet in Mil-town!

congrats on 1000 dude.

ummm.... i usually go down I-90 man (not through Milwaukee). Plus I'll probably end up going home to my P's house for the whole weekend anyway but if I'm on your way to the meet then you are welcome to swing by and we can roll together from there.

lets get a consensus here

4/18 or 4/25

Vote which day would work best for you.

4/18= 1 vote
4/25= 1 vote

really both days will for me, and probably tom, we have the same agenda (having a running car) lol. the more time to work the better

edit: nevermind, lets just do it on the 25th. Tom wanna start the official thread please!
