View Full Version : Redex - best speeding excuse yet ?

A few months ago I used a bottle of Redex injector cleaner on my car which worked a treat. I decided to leave the empty bottle in the compartment in the front drivers door. This comes in very handy.

I was recently doing one of my 0-100mph starts from a set of lights near my house when I got spotted by a Police car. I saw him out the corner of my eye, so eased off to 80 and let him catch me, then he promptly pulled me over.

As soon as he asked why I was accelerating at such a rate I produced the said bottle of Redex and said I had just put this into my car and was trying to flush the injectors out. His attitude changed immediately and he said he'd heard this was good stuff. I got let off with a friendly warning !

It may not always work, but its worth keeping an empty bottle in your car :)

Not sure an empty bottle of whisky would have had the same effect... :D

Perhaps if the bottle of whiskey was full and ended up in the officers car ....

Mr Akimoto laments the use of liason with police officers. As he is the owner of 1200HP 233MPH 200SX (fastest 200SX in the world) he is well known worldwide.

Mr Akimoto is a man of few words, but money talks. Bribery. His method is only attained by people of fine stature, and anybody driving a 200SX below 1000HP could probably not afford the payoff.

Mr Akimoto does not like other 200SX owners, he see's them as bottom dwellers in cheap 'sporty' cars.

That is unless you have 750HP.

Mr Akimoto is still an unleaded user!...
He should then stay humble in front of grown-up people...

As Samuraï shadow's signature shows below, Samuraï Shadow is not afraid of annihilating Mr Akimoto's big mouth, but it would not be fair, as Mr Akimoto is still an UNLEADEAD USER and would not have the smallest chance to win...

Or so it would appear Mr Akimoto was an unleaded user.

Mr Akimoto is tired of petroleum companies cashing in on exorbitant fuel prices he fills up with unleaded, and then adds 3 x 600ml octane booster bottles to every tank.

Mr Akimoto:1 Mr Shadow:0

http://www.duhspot.com/users/smiley/s/contrib/tweetz/spock.gif ...I can notice a little contradiction here...

So, here comes my advice, Mr Akimoto:
Put the 3 x 600ml octane booster in your car's tank, DON'T DRINK IT!!!, it has already harmed you enough!...

P.S:Samuraï Shadow doesn't count the points, he lets that insignifant task to be executed by unleaded users :p
