Default Anyone know where I can get a speedo calibration done on the TT?

this obviously has something to do with my tickets.

Called Rockville P/A. They don't do that anymore. Anyone know anywhere else? thanks.

Default I don't think many people do those any more actually

My lawyer recommended I do this on my second reckless (which I got on my Civic).

I went to my guy in Rockville who wrote me up a receipt that said my speedometer was off and that he replaced some gizmo and fixed it. He didn't say by how much it was off. It wasn't really off, he just did me the favor.

You can check with him. Convenient Auto Repair. 301-738-8839. He's in Rockville right north of Herson's Honda. There are those shops back there where A1 used cars is and the hot tub shop used to be...that entrance there.

Curry's 4WD dyno will give you a speedo calibration at the same time they dyno the car.

Default I have a radar gun, and you can also use the data.....

in the car's computers, and also GPS equipped cellphones will give you speed readings.

Speedometers aren't usually off by that much though. I can't imagine it helps much in a court situation, but I guess anything's better than nothing there.
