if only they all thought like that... witnessed my friend in a police chase while i'm working on my bike in the driveway not too long ago, granted he was equally dumb but the cop had absolutely no right to do what he did... my friend ran a stop sign so the cop hits the lights, my friend takes off... i'm working on the bike and see him come flying down my road doing like 90, its a 25mph road with houses on each side and cars parked in the streets, then i see a cop doing 75-80 down my street, sirens not on, i mean we have kids that play in front yards and stuff all the time that was just negligent... i bitched at my friend pretty good but he wasn't in a 3-ton cruiser with 1/10th the braking ability of his motorcycle either

they retain the factory limiter. i read an article on a test they do every year in michigan i think it is, they tested the intrepid, the camaro, the hummer, the crown vic interceptor, and the impala. the hummer was the worst, 1/4 in 22.11 @ 61.8, and a top speed of 85 mph. the camaro was obviously the fastest, 14.14 1/4 and 159 top end.

police interceptor (vic) 0-60 9.14, 16.99 @ 84.1, 128 mph
impala, 9.25, 17.02 @ 83, 126 mph
intepid, 9.14, 16.98 @ 85, 136 mph
hummer, 20.65, 22.11 @ 61.8, 85 mph
camaro, (auto, 3.23) 5.69, 14.14 @ 102.48, 159
