Serious question. Can police cars keep up with a Porche.. Or even an Audi?


No, but they can’t outrun their radios.

Saw a couple of these assholes on I-12 Eastbound recently just past Airline during heavy afternoon traffic.

They were weaving in and out and being total dicks. A Mustang got behind an 18 wheeler in the far right lane and was going to pass him on the shoulder. Just as the Mustang flew up on the truck and started to get on the shoulder he smoked his brakes and jerked it back left right behind the truck. There was another 18 wheeler parked on the shoulder stopped that the Mustang never saw. That dude came about .05 seconds from slamming into the back of that parked trailer at 100 mph. One would think that would have given him pause but he was back driving like an a-hole ten seconds later.

New bridge will take care of the speeding problem through town in about two hours.

was about to post the exact same thing. They’re in for a rude awakening when they hit BR.

They better catch the thruway south in Laffy or they’re gonna be pissed.

Actually looks like the traffic is already fricked in BR.

When it’s Chargers and Challengers, I’m more worried about getting caught in the crossfire.

I was about to say, if they had a bunch of decals then it was probably part of some exotic car rally.

The guy that organized that one, Randy Savage Tillim died about a month ago in an accident. His family hasn't let any of the details leak as to the circumstances.

Debris gets blown or knocked into the shoulders. It’s a good place to get a flat.

I care more because there is a good chance my 78 yr old dad is involved. He just had his 2018 Challenger on jack stands so that he could paint the Brembo brake pads a canary yellow.

Does he have the stupid looking banana scratch protectors on the front bumper still?

I have a stinger and drive like a normal adult. Nearly every day some a-hole in a SRT has to pull up next to me and downshift. Oh cool your car makes louder noise than mine.

Suicide. Gunshot.

At least that is what the supposed 911 tape reveals.

Not saying you wrong, but The Gumball Rally, Cannonball Run (all eleventeen versions) and Dukes of Hazard were all movies/shows from the early 80's. Acting the arse while racing cars has been around since 5 minutes after the second one rolled off the assembly line.

Never seen anyone like that get pulled over but you better not be going 77 in a 70


I once got pulled over for going 82 in a 75.

The truck I was driving was a company vehicle, and was limited to 73. So yeah.

Seriously? Didn't know that. Money might by you a Murcielago SV but it won't buy you happiness.
