You go speeding past a cop at 140...what would you do?

[OneSlow5pt0]

does it have a 350? The last of the 3rd gens with 350's had 245hp and 345 torque. 15 less hp than a 99-04 Mustang GT, but 45 more torque. The 99 GT weighs around 3700lbs with an automatic (3650 manual), where as the 3rd gen camaro Z28 weighs in around 3195lbs for the coupe. All in all, if you remove all the smog equipment from the 3rd gen F bodies, they will run with a 99-04 GT all day.

nah its just the little 305,ive hit the limiter at 115 and it was begging to go faster,and when i looked up it up it says 138mph i belive



and talking bout interiors.......i love my camaro's it reminda be lot of my FC's everything is well placed and in reach,yea its all plastic,but i dont care...and very comfortable car to drive everyday

[X-Runner]

lol sh!t. I am on Ronald Regan right now. I work off of it and drive it daily.
I don't see how in the world he was able to do 125. That is fukking nuts. 105 is kinda pushing it, and this road is not exactly straight. Plenty of turns.

I drive it daily also. I lost it at 80 MPH in my Fusion on the last left hand turn before Pleasant Hill. You can still see the marks where I came out of the grass back in to the road.

[mocha latte cupcake]

who stops/!?!?!?!?!?

[Capt._Ron]

LOL all these stories remind me of the night that i buried the speedo in my acura legend sedan. I was a complete idiot at 19 but it was heavy, low, and i had a 75 shot of nitrous on it. Im not sure what my actual speed was because ive never done the math based on the gear ratios and rpm's but I was past 140 and well into the odometer. I loved that honda 3.2 it was so smooth and just kept on pulling.

[Hollowmon]

Keep that S#@T moving. If you got a good chance of getting away without putting anyone in danger I say MORE GAS!!!

[Elbow]

Just keep going...police tell me all the time they won't even try to catch you, they will just pick your body up further down the road.

[Ed]

i'd stop. evos arent real cars, slow pieces of junk. it's only real if you've got a mullet and can drive in a straight line.

[Sport1.3]

Back in the 70's, my dad did the same thing but in a real car, a 6-cylinder 914, and he jumped off at the next exit and hid for 30 minutes or so, then continued along.

in a 130hp porsche....wowzers....those "real" cars back in the day must have been scary fast

[SiRed94]

I would pull over, get in my Millennium Falcon and hit light speed on his ass....

[_Christian_]

in a 130hp porsche....wowzers....those "real" cars back in the day must have been scary fast

lmao. i agree with allmotoronly. crown vic=130, mustang gt=140.

[teh_mugen18]

*subscribing to this thread......*

[southside]

who stops/!?!?!?!?!?

When I get lost I do or get off and go the way I came from

[allmotoronly]

ok lets look at those 2, the base cobalt makes 145 yes, but the base civic has only 140 hp. ok now lets take the cobalt ss supercharged it makes 205 hp where as the civic si makes 197 so we will say 200 hp. if your going to compare cars compare apples to apples and dont apples to oranges.

EDIT: also take a look at where in the power band those 2 cars make there power.

Are you agreeing with me or what? Yes the base cobalt makes 145hp out of 2.2L, and the non Si civic makes 140 out of a 1.8L, which is 20% less displacement than the cobalt with only about 3.5% less power. The SS is supercharged, which goes along with what I was saying about domestics needing forced induction to approach the 100hp/liter mark.

[On_Her_Face]

considering that this is probably a stock evo, this is a stupid question, cause evos over 100 mph suck when stock and/or lightly modded.

My answer: I'd sh!t my pants, then get off at the next exit go to QT and clean myself.

[ARH1192]

I did is in '05 in my wrx. He was on the on ramp posted up. I didnt even see him. I pulled off at my exit and he came up behind me. 8 miles from where I passed him. If I knew he was there I might have been able to get away. but i didnt.

4 tickets and lost licenses for 6 month., $2100 in fines, $2000 for lawyer which only got 2 of the tickets off my record.

I got clocked a 126, reckless driving, driving on the median, and improper lane change.

GSP>me

[Ed]

damn ^ raped idb.

[DESTRO_91]

I saw a guy who doing 120 in a Probe GT on HWY 301 near Statesboro pass a GSP on the opposite side, the GSP turned his lights on as the guy passed him, the guy in the Probe kept going to about 130 and made it to his apartment complex in Statesboro, where he didn't drive his car for about 3 days. (All this was done at night at about 11:30 pm with little to no traffic) I don't condone what the guy did, but he did it.

[cactusEG]

If I knew I had a very good chance at not getting cought, then fucck it run !

[AnTi-PooN]

^ If the PI Crown Vics only do 130, how come their speedometers are accurate to 140?

lol at this guy... mine is accurate till 120 but my engine cut off is at 107

[Bruce Leroy]

One night around 2 I was driving the g35 and passed a cop going at least 120 through the tunnel on 400s.... As soon as i came around the corner he turned his lights on tried to come after me. I got off at sydney marcus, hit that left, hopped on buford, rode it to spring and then went to atlantic station.. I'm pretty sure he followed me onto buford, i couldn't see him anymore after the piedmont merge...


I will never do it again tho.

[teh_mugen18]

idk why but i have a feeling this thread may get locked down if ppl keep sharing too many personal stories of themselves recklessly running from cops...

[redrumracer]

idk why but i have a feeling this thread may get locked down if ppl keep sharing too many personal stories of themselves recklessly running from cops...

why would that happen? nobody is forcing them to share there stories. besides im sure there is a short statute of limitations on it. i was once told it was 3 miles

[HeLLo iM iZzY]

I'd probably pull over, lol.

[southside]

^^^WHy would it get shut down.What are we offending the cops cuz they slow ass cars

[yogi08]

yep. dudes name is landon. hes a moron.

[southside]

Lol me and some friends were coming from Riverdale one night. On 75N headed to 285E did 120 my friend was going 140 pulling away.We got on 285 came up on a cop real fast I slammed the brakes he flew by.Lol come to find out it was a Marta Cop.

[toxxxic]

depends on whether its just a county sherriff or GSP.

county sheriff - keep going. he probably wont even think about putting his car in drive anyway. he'll just wait for the next person driving 15 over & give THEM a ticket.

gsp - pull over the second i spot him. no matter if he pulls out, puts his lights on or what. gsp will chase you until you either pull over or you get into a wreck & kill yourself.

[FlipKing]

Straight line? pull the hell over, you are fizucked. If you have an oppurtunity to make a quick turn and keep pulling quick turns. All cop cars weigh like....394293847239847lbs and cant turn for sh!t. Just keep turning, accelerating, slow down, turn, accelerate, hide.

[teh_mugen18]

keep pulling quick turns. . Just keep turning, accelerating, slow down, turn, accelerate, hide.

LoL "FLIP king".......

[FlipKing]

lol, i"ve flipped 2 cars, thats why i've learned the SLOW DOWN part realllly well. , lol

[Kaiser]

why would that happen? nobody is forcing them to share there stories. besides im sure there is a short statute of limitations on it. i was once told it was 3 miles

Reason why this thread won't get closed:

This one time, my friend took his Lamborghini Gallardo and was doing laps around 285 at like, 3 in the afternoon, honking at GSP cars and stuff, and was so fast that when he turned off on 400, lightning struck the back of the car and the tires exploded into flames and he showed up the night his parents concieved him. Turns out his Gallardo's flux-coil capacitor had overheated from all the driving in circles.

[KoukiBlake]

A few days ago me and a friend were doing 140 in his mercedes. If we would have seen a cop we would have kept going.

Driving at 140-160 is somewhat scary though. Cars come up on you so fast and a fast lane change at 160? Haha **** that your ass is wrecking if you try that.

But if i was doing 140 and passed a cop i would keep going. I wouldnt be doing that in the day light in the first place with a bunch of traffic around.

As soon as I saw the cop car and seen him turn on his lights/pull out and try to catch me he would already be far behind and there is no ****ing way he would catch me. I'd hit the next exit then immediately turn around and get back on the interstate heading the other way and wave to the cop as i passed him.

[KoukiBlake]

All that is assuming the cop car was not one of those camaro cop cars. Those things are scary fast!

lol your crazy as hell ron

[-S Double C-]

i'd stop. evos arent real cars, slow pieces of junk. it's only real if you've got a mullet and can drive in a straight line.

LOL!!!! Ed your stupid

[Paree4g63]

hypothetically speaking, your driving down an empty highway, in an 03 evo, and you zip passed a cop at 140mph.

What do you do?


Saw this debate on another forum. Just curious as to some answers here.

**stock 03 evo tops out @ 160mph @ 7k rpm pretty decent. turbocharged cars top out alot easier then NA cars. Tuned evos with extended redlines can probably top out more. If you've done it once, just don't ever do it again. All aspects are considered such as your tires speed rating and what kind of car you have. Of course evo's are built to handle it; any non performance factory built car = BIG RISK! It's common sense to upgrade your handling as your power increases.

If i was doin 140 passing a cop..Find a spot to chill or take a different detour home. If you've got a spare set of night vision goggles; use them and turn off your lights and get off the nearest exit and go the opposite direction of the highway. hahaha doubt anyone rides with night vision.

[.blank cd]

My answer: I'd sh!t my pants, then get off at the next exit go to QT and clean myself.

Thats stupid. Thats where all the cops sit

[Turbo Terrance]

KEEP FVCKIN GOIN TILL I SEE THE BLUE LIGHTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[JuStCrUzIn]

Who buys a Mustang and keeps it stock?

And they top out at 155 stock.

I DIDNT READ PAST THIS REPLY BUT YOU SIR ARE A DUCHE NOZZLE, THE TOPIC ISNT ONE OF YOUR MUSTANGS THAT YOU DONT HAVE ANYMORE. THE TOPIC IS WOULD YOU RUN FROM A COP DRIVING A PI CROWN VIC IF YOU PASSED HIM AT 140MPH, AND AS FAR AS I KNOW THE POLICE DONT DO **** TO THEM THEY ARE HEAVY AND I KNOW THEY ARE LESS AERODYNAMIC THEN A MUSTANG. SO PLEASE DONT TALK ANYMORE.

lol at the mack cv713

depends on the situation. i have done the keep going and pull off routine before coming back from pensacola, thank goodness for 3am and lower alabama traffic. he turned around but i got off at the next exit, 2 miles, pulled off the highway and sat up there and watched the cop ride by, then i followed him!!!
