Cop car ?
I was just wondering does anyone have the specs of a cop car. I think the crown victoria models and impalas.( Mostly whats around here ). Im not trying to go f&f and outrun them I was just curious. Are the engines modded at all? And what do they run quarter mile. If anyone knows this and could let me know that would be great.

Re: Cop car ?

Re: Cop car ?
From what I remember reading, it's not the 1/4 mile that's better in cop cars than stock crown vics, it's the top end. After all, that's where they do most of their chasing. The CHP has cameros, though I have yet to see any. I guess they reserve those for bigger towns than the one I live in.
Also, you have to remember that radio waves always travel faster than the fastest car, and cops have radios to call ahead. So even if you're faster than the one behind you, there will probably be one ahead of you too.

The town that the local 'strip' is, the hot place to go cruise and such, have a few undercover cars. I think they have a maroon Impala, and I know they have a green Camaro. No lights on the outside, just lights on the inside of the windshield. The cops are in full uniform though, so you have to be pretty stupid to drag race one of em. Word gets around mighty fast as to what the cop's latest undercover cars are. |

Re: Cop car ?
Problem with the sports cars fitted to be cop cars is that they arent very durable for doing anything but tailing ppl at high speeds, imagine how trashed a camaro or mustang would get after a pit move on another car.

Re: Cop car ?
Nor Cal has SS Camaros for CHP. They are damn quick too. I watched as a orange 98 i think Acura Integra tried to get away, the SS just caught up like the integra was parked.

Re: Cop car ?
My city has a Turbo Cop Minivan. I've watched some get chased down by it, I heard the BOV. I couldn't tell what model of minivan, but I swear on my life that we have a turbo-cop minivan. I have also seen a few Camaros, and a Mustang. Neither of which I am a afraid of. But duplox is right, no car can outrun a motorola.
