My insurance is due to be lowered next month (technically not until it is up which is august). And this ticket may have an outcome of it staying higher then expected. paying approx 9100 per year is highway robery, tho its better then the 10200 i was paying last year!
Speeding does not pay, I was speeding, I was honest, I plead guilty. I still have my license = I can drive = 
I think if I was told to pay $9000/yr for insurance I'd stop driving. What the hell have you done to get the privledge of paying that much for insurance? The price is obscene.
Hopefully you've learned your lesson. People like me, that are older, and have a good driving record pay $800/yr for full coverage. That should be motivation enough for you to make some changes to your driving habits.

$9000 a year is CRAZY!! Before I bought my Mystique, I checked for prices on full coverage on a 1998 Honda Civic Si, 2 door. I just turned 20 at the time, and it was gonna cost $4300 for total coverage, in my own name and with the car in my name. You must have a bad driving record to be paying that much. On a lighter note, my insurance went down $700 this year.
