When you absolutely, positively, without question need to haul ass, or
simply go for a Sunday drive that will make your wife scream for mercy,
andcant afforda real sports car, consider the Mustang. In the hands of
crimminals, this baby will do as asked....LOL!
Or...like something from Real People....
Mustang, the handling alone will cure hemmoroids.

Diode "off topic" ? nah impossible...besides most of the OT (on topic or on
target) are the most interesting.
That entire video was on one of those "Cops" shows a while back. (the show
that has tons of repeats and either Helicopter or on dash police car
video..some of them are pretty neat to see it from the police dash camera.
Just wish they would stop that video of the guy driving a stolen tank in San
Diego and smashing everything in its way, that one seems to be shown about
every other show)
As far as what kind of car that is ? I looked at some of it frame by frame
and enlarged and cleaned up the pic`s and still cannot figure it out as
parts of it look like a Mercedes, other parts like a BMW or Cadillac and
then the weird taillights have no idea.
All I can say is that is one unreal rugged and fast car and the driver looks
like he has to be a pro. I showed it to a friend who is a retired FBI
defensive driver instructor and think we watched it about 10 times and
commented that there might be 15-20 people in the US that could drive like
that. Also showed it to a long time cop friend who was LAPD hi-way patrol
for 15 years and 10 years here in a "Chase group" and he had seen that tape
many times and also commented he had never seen a chase even close to that
and agreed it had to be a Pro driver to recover from those 360`s so many
times.
Cool Video and one unreal driver for sure !!

oh, come on. Either I`m one of those 20 people, or maybe he drove in
the snow before... we used to spend many evenings doing donuts in
parking lots in the snow in the winter.
And I have done at least 4 full 360`s on the dirt track this year
without hitting anything... once you start to go around, just keep yer
foot in it... of course, I also tore the front bumper clean off in one
race...

Title: My Cash 4 Clunker Approved! Date: Thu, 24 Sep 2009 12:54:27 +0000 Author: rcl1221
 party wagon says goodbye to party van.
Yeah, so I just get a call yesterday from the car dealership that the car I bought in late July finally got approved for the Cash 4 Clunkers rebate.
I guess that’s nice? The car’s only seen 1000 miles thus far. Been riding my motorcycle too much!
