Anybody know if there's any states that still run the old notch back Mustangs in the patrol lineup? seen some old videos of them actually running down the criminal in a HSP and they had no match....

Your link isn't working..

 

[Skandocious]

Works fine for me...

Yes we have a few in my state, and they have some others (Saleen's) they bring to schools. We also have some older Camaro's that are used. These cars are from drug busts and such.

Either way, that was a really cool video.

The rate you're going, Scott, you are gonna have to move into the Garage, buy your wife a new one, and let the cars have the HOUSE!

Cool Video! Love those controlled spin-outs!

Very cool video!!!! That Mustang is going to have a permanent air freshener................burning rubber!

 

[d-kuzmen]

Makes me miss my mustang.!! Now I want another one, nothing like the smell of burnt rubber!!

 

[mrfixit]

Nothing like the smell of TESTTRACK-cerone in the morning!

 

[ford4life69]

i'm guessing the 360's were on purpose?

 

[mrfixit]

Yep... part of their training; Intentionally go into a skid, then recover, all within a 20 foot wide strip!

Wouldn't want one of those guys chasing me down, I say they passed the course.

I've seen ex-CHP Fox-body 'Stangs (or so they claim) on eBay a time or two.

Maine's got at least one completely unmarked, new-style Mustang GT, though...even got one of those "support the [something or other]" plates on it. They had a few marked Camaros back in the mid-'90s, but since then, this is the first "fast" car I've seen.

 

[ford4life69]

there's a mid 90's mustang cop and a couple of the new chargers abt 30 miles from here in leveldirt.

 

[flareside_thunder]

Yea my state has a few chargers camaros corvettes and i think the branch I drive by has one fox body....as well as the usual PI's and a truck.
