and heres some performance specs for commonly used police vehicles
Chevrolet Impala (the newer ones that are popping up all over) 0-60 = 9.25 Quarter mile = 17.02 @ 83.20 mph top speed = 126 Dodge Intrepid (see them once in a while) 0-60 = 9.14 Quarter mile = 16.98 @ 85.05 top speed = 136 Ford Police Interceptor (we all know these) 0-60 = 9.14 Quarter mile = 16.99 @ 84.10 top speed = 128 Chevrolet Camaro (lot of states use these for chase cars) 0-60 = 5.69 Quarter mile = 14.14 @ 102.48 top speed = 159 this is in no way the full list of everything you are up against out there some of the other cars that i have seen or heard about are: WS6 trans ams SRT-4s WRXs mustangs corvettes a shit load of different SUVs this does not take into consideration the helicopters or airplanes that might be watching your ass from the sky, or motorcycles (and yes some places are starting to put cops on sport bikes) the list will vary by area __________________

in flagler county, here in FL, there are turboed dodge intrepids that are more then just turbo. cause my buddy was tellin me was havin a hard time puttin distance between himself(R6) and the officer.
additionally, the old FHP mustangs were re worked. the 5.0 Notch backs. either way i think it varies from place to place. and i dont think anyone can apply any blanket statement. __________________

for a molment there I thought they might actually be able to keep up....  the real threat around here is 300zxtt or the gutted all to hell 5.0 ive seen some pretty funny things though... as a joke some local PD bought and stripped out a Crown vic and then ran it at the track.... 14.50s was the best of the day...... if you can run anything under a 14.50 and have a top speed over 130mph... there is a VERY good chance that they arent going to keep up... that being said... dont run |

 The Crown Vics in Austin are actually pretty fast- they definitely have more than just rear gears, LSD, ECU and intake. I've ridden in one up in Dallas (getting ride home after a wreck), and it was actually damn fast too- way faster than those specs. Down in Houston you see a Vette every once in a while, a few Hummers, undercover street racer cars, tons of Z28s... I guess they like to keep fast cars in the force in the major metropolitan areas of Texas. <!--QuoteBegin-jeffie7@Jul 31 2005, 03:48 PM Anyone who thinks they can "run" from the police in a car is stupid. unless you live in a county with 5 officers on duty at one time.

I'm not making 100mph+ trips between states every weekend anymore though. Thank goodness! __________________

Cops don't bother with bikes because you can show up with a group of 10 bikers and you're LOST to the cop. They remember certain details, green, or not Green. And then everyone will vouch for you being there. Just kinda look at each other like all is well.

talking about running from the cops. Funny story of the day...
My freind is selling his 5.0 mustang for 5500 obo (he paid like 3 for it). Guy calls him up and says that he will give him 6 cash, but he wants to look at it first. Says he will be there at 2. Comes close to two, this guy calls him up and says he is on his way. While he is talking to my freind on the phone, the guy says oh shit, I'm getting pulled over. My freinds like, oh that sucks. This guy then says that he has warents out for his arrest, then tells my freind that he is going to try and run. Guy hangs up the phone. He calls up about 20 minutes later saying that he is going to jail for selling crack, and if the car isn't sold in 4 weeks when he gets out, then he will buy it. Fucking great. __________________

As for the crown vic being faster than the STI, or even the WRX I highly doubt it. The car is far too heavy and it doesn't have the benefit of awd traction. On a highway pull, the v8 might get the wrx. Jeffie, I don't know why the car you were in could barely hit 120, because they're usually governed at 140mph with the police interceptor package. Also, if you were in the car with someone during a high speed chase that was doing 120mph, he was a dope. You're not supposed to give pursuit over 100mph. __________________

Go read E's posts, then come back and tell me that Ford installs Nitrous on it's PI crown vics. I don't care what your uncle does for some random cop who wants to make his city bought police car faster and less efficient, but the larger companies who modify PI crown vics do not do engine modifications, and neither does Ford.  __________________

[/b][/quote] Welcome to Calvert County, it is one of the only countys in the state of maryland with a will CHASE policy. Anything and everything, it doesnt matter they WILL go after you. This is also a county that has 1 main road in and out, 2 lanes each way with zero lights. topping out a car isnt hard at all same goes for street racing its all over the place. as far as the 120mph Im not shitting you. it tapped out and I told the officer "thats it?" as stated before most all of the cars in use had a good bit of miles on them and have been run into the ground. once again having a police car running 24/7 only to shut them off to refule or do oilchanges. If the car was brand new I have no doubt that it would do more then that at least I would hope it would. But as it sat we were leading the pack of cars about 4 in all chasing after a burglary supspect that just happened. Once again I'm speaking from being inside the cars I figure so far I've been in around 8 different police cars. and IMO they are slow as dirt. And rev8K when I say mods to the motors I'm talking basic bolt on shit from ECUs to different cams. nothing major. once again depending on your county/state thigs change. even in Maryland one county to the next the cars can be different. Most of my time has been spent with a very small county with about 25 total officers. They have a lot of things no other counties have. they also lack alot of things. but they do have a will chase policy so that makes doing ride alongs more fun then any other county. Even Sportbikes they "try" to catch. |
