just remember to ask the cop, where exactly were you spotted racing, at what time of the day, have them describe the car you were seen racing against, have them describe your car, ask the officer there if HE or SHE was the one that spotted you racing, if not request that the spotted officer be brought in for questioning and go over it again with them.
Take your time, be calm, draw it out. Have a list of questions to go through. Consider hiring a lawyer if you don't think you have a chance by yourself. Cops and Judges are tough cookies, the cop thinks he is right no matter what, and the judge agrees with the cop till you prove him wrong.
If you've been around during the day buying stuff, or working, bring receipts or a time card from work. If they say "we saw you racing at 3:49pm an highway ***" and you pull out a receipt with a time that says you were buying something at that time, they're screwed.
If you used a CC or Check Card, call your bank up and ask them to send you any receipts from that day. If they're BS'ing the ticket they may just make up a number and you might have proof that you were no where around that area at that time.
In all likely hood, they saw someone racing in a car similar to yours. But it is still a BS call on the cops part. fight that ticket.
