Spending insane amounts of money: something the UAE has done for a long time.

I agree,, they should just shoot the car with a tracking device, from the cop car or from the air. Then just ease back and catch them easily later without the dangerous chase. Or better yet, develop the tech to shoot an imoblizer that shuts the car off, like tranquelizing an animal...

Electrical System Disabler (ESD) likes the one they use in 2 Fast 2 Furious.

My pic of the G37 Hawaiian cop car doesn't show some of the others I saw last January... Mustang Cobra, nice black on black and an R/T Charger if I recall. They park them in front of the station there and they also were part of a parade early this year. So, they do have some American Muscle too. :-)

Raw video: http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=fa8_1286571862

Raw Dash-Cam footage: SUSPECT ESCAPES

Authorities are looking for two men in a white Infiniti who led officials on a chase through two counties Tuesday afternoon after a home was burglarized in Sorrento, Lake County sheriff's officials said.

Lt. John Herrell said Lake County deputies tried to stop the car near County Road 437 and State Road 46 when the driver backed into the patrol cruiser and fled. The driver struck another deput More..y's car as they headed west toward U.S. Highway 441.

As the car entered Orange County, Apopka police and Orange deputies took over the pursuit but were unable to catch the suspects.

No one was injured, Herrell said.

The car appeared to have 22-inch custom chrome rims and a flower hanging from the rearview mirror.
LOL, stock sport 19", not 22".

I don't know for sure, but those are probably vehicles from police seizures where the car was used in the commission of a crime

Notice the other G at 2:20 in the video. What if that G were also white? There was so much distance, its possible the cops would have focused on that car before they realized the license plates didn't match. That is assuming they knew the plate number.

And now a few words from Mango.

That driver needs to seriously think about a career in F1 racing.
The way he handled the G showed a certain calm, focus, determination and of course luck.
These attributes are held in high regard and richly rewarded in the world of F1 racing.
I'll be looking to sign this wayward driver to my newly formed TMR***.

Of course he'll need to serve his time for the crime of eluding the Po Po, plus a mile long laundry list of other infractions.

Now,I don't like to see the G used in the commission of such a crime, but I have to say, the baby G sure did look good as she was dippin' up outta there.

All those who agree say "Ayeeeeeeeee"

"Ayeeeeeeeee!!"

We now return you to your regularly scheduled Sunday.

(Or whatever day it is in your neck of the woods)


-Mango-



**TMR = Team Mango Racing.

it's 1 of many that has bounced.
they will always be the ones that got away,im sure the cops in the pursuit won't be getting any commendations for this one.
