OT: Mass pike speeding ticket

Hi all,
Finally happened, pulled over on the pike on Saturday, 80mph in a 65mph zone. I had moved out of the right lane (where I generally travel, at between 65 and 70mph, which makes this even worse!) to pass a couple cars going below the speed limit. I (along with a couple other vehicles who had pulled out to pass) was accelerating, crested a hill, and there was the trooper w/the radar gun. The other vehicles had already jumped back into the lane ahead of me, leaving me exposed. At any rate, is this something that I can/should fight? I know I was probably going 70-75mph, but certainly not 80, and it was only to pass slower moving traffic in the right lane. This is my first ticket as I generally drive the speed limit, and I really would prefer not to take the hit on insurance for 3 years because of one mistake. Any advice (especially from those familiar with mass pike cases) would be greatly appreciated.
