Default The winner of the radar wars is KNOWN!!!!!

Finally, the very best radar detector is KNOWN....

But I won't tell you just because you might be too lazy to read it for yourself. I've been checking this site every few hours looking for its "first week in June" update. Today it arrived.

Here it is.....in my humble opinion....the very best radar test ever.

See if you agree.

Sweet, thanks for the link. I still think the Valentine One is the best out there. Of course, I haven't had much experience w/ other.

B-Man I'll get one of those for my bike but what about my car? I'll stick with the SR-1.....Costs a little more but it's smaller then a bread box.

V-1 didn't compete...I can vouch for that. There the Utah group sped at 100+ miles per hour into Wyoming one peaceful Saturday. Then........I'll let you tell them Yellow S2000 (aka V-1 owner). Utah S2K slows way down..the others; well they're just lucky there wasn't a convenient turn around. But I sure was entertained as the cop locked up his brakes trying to find one. Utah at a pleasant 75 MPH only hoped he wasn't picked off due to the failure of others radar systems.

....I'll let you tell em Mark

I guess you didn't read far enough. Valentine declined to provide a unit, but one was included in all the tests

Utah, You have the fact all wrong again We were cruising up I80 @ speed of 100 plus mph 5 of us My V1 did not go off but I did see the state police off to the side of the road. Now your SR-1 was picking up some cell tower in the middle of nowhere so you slowed down to 75 mph while the rest of the group was following me because they felt safe because they knew I had a V1.

Yes the officers did try to turn around because they never had seen such beautiful Yellow cars But by then we were only 6 miles from the boarder and It would have taken him a lot longer to catch us.. So no harm No foul... But we weren't going as fast as you on the way back when you left the Liquor / fireworks store
we came out & you were gone.. I thought you were a wanted man in the state of Wyoming as fast as you left

As for the liquor and fireworks what would you do if the other 4 members of your group crossed the stae line at 100+ and you supeior detector alerted you. You fail to mention the two Wyoming troopers who just happened into the parking lot after the "failed V-1 alert". Damn right I got outta Dodge.....got my high point beer and my $60.00 "Predator" aerial display. Told you guys I'd meet you at the rest stop. Whole day was great and pretty damn funny if you ask me. So I figure we got at least one more run to pick up goodies before the fourth....what are you doing Sunday? I'll take the lead....you know why....ergh ...ahh you take the lead as you are now clear bra protected . Well doesn't matter to me we just gotta leave the other 4 guys at home! It's hard to remain "low profile" when you pull into a hick border town to stock up on illicit fireworks and booze with 6 stooks and a handful of half dressed women (made that part up myself)

Call me...........
