I was on my way home from my football game (We won 20-12) it was about 12:45, and my buddy was tailgating me, So I gassed it a bit. 43 in a 25 zone, and a ticket for street racing. I tried to explain we weren't racing (we weren't) but I got written up for it anyway. My buddy drove by and she flagged him down and he got a ticket for street racing but not for speeding (she only clocked me). I'm going to fight the street racing ticket, because I wasn't street racing. Any ideas on how I can get out of this with as little pain as possible.

43 is pretty tense on a 25mph zone. That must have been a neighborhood. To cops, speeding is going past the speed limit. Racing is speeding your car. As long as you attempt to increase your mph aggressively, it would be considered as racing as so an officer told me when he pulled me over when I was speeding 90 on a 45. This would be a hard fight considering that you were going 43 and the judge will most likely look at it that you were "racing" on their terms.
