I just saw on the news that CHP are now using Chargers to catch speeders/racers.....The lights are in the grill not on top of the roof so its very hard to tell......

Be aware of black chargers out there........

it looks like they are gonna use the V6 models... thats a dumb investment. Now the V8 would be a good choice, but it looks like it might only be an option. Anyways **throwing head back and laughing** LOL!! :D

ORIGINAL: GoManGo_1269

Daytonas rate 350, dyno average 280ish.

SRTs, however, rate 425 and dyno 360ish

Somehow, that 75 crank difference now becomes 80 at the wheels. And it should the same or lower, since the drivetrain is the same, losswise.

i'm just guessing that we're going to look at the daytonas as the srt's are a different story... being rated @ 425 n all (obviously it's faster than most...)

hm...V6 chargers for CHP.* eh.* its an upgrade from the crown victorias.* i dont like the hidden lights.* it'll be harder to spot them with the lights on or off.*

Enyth
07-14-2006, 11:28 PM
wow the lights are on the flip visor...so now its even harder to tell if that black charger behind you is a cop or not. He just flips the visor and your toast :knuppel2:

those do have lights...interesting. i think pursuit vehicles have V8, and normal city police vehicles will have V6.

If I was a black SRT-8 Charger owner, I'd be stoked - I have a cop-alike car that's 100000000x cooler than a Crown Vic.

I can outrun anything the CHP has (including helicopters) - it's those damn radios that piss me off... :tickedoff:

Even if they were using V8 on their pursuit vehicles, I'm sure the target group is still going to be your typical riceboy in a (_____) with obnoxious fartcans, neon lights, craptacular driving, with something to prove...

I don't think our cars completly fall into that category yet...

All they'd be able to catch are those riced out (_____)

thisxguy
07-15-2006, 12:05 PM
so they do have the top lights and they have the spotlights that stick out.

V8s as pursuit cars huh. gay. i hope their american built goodness breaks down like 100 times a week. lol

ehh not too worried about this, our cars are still faster than theirs, they still have RWD so we can corner a lot better than them....and they out weigh us. They cant radio ahead if they cant see us O0

thisxguy
07-15-2006, 02:24 PM
they weigh a lot more...they can demolish our car if they decide to ram us. lol

the radio is the worst. they'll radio and all they have to do is say what car and which direction and every cop will be on it =/

of course its better to get the ticket. but hey...if you can outrun a cop and get away clean...lol. why not. haha

Oh remember when they announced a couple years ago that they got their Camaros. I rarely see those also, damn what a waste of money and using up us tax payers money. I'd be suprise if they even use this one. For now the damn CHP is all talk

Chris in SD
07-27-2006, 03:16 AM
I've seen CHP Camaros. The ones I've seen were all white. Keep in mind, too, that the CHP racks up SERIOUS miles, so those cars only stay in service for a few years before the mileage is exceeded. I remember back in the early '90s that you could get a 5.0 Mustang from them on the cheap...

I saw one in Corona, westbound on the 91.

I wouldn't sweat the street versions sweat cars. If there was a reset button in life and we were ever crazy enough to try to outrun the CHP, we could. The SRT8 does 0-60 "in the 5 second range" and 0-100 "in the 16 second range" according to Dodge. Thats with 425 horsepower. The CHP cars are loaded down with so much equipment for the radio and other stuff that it easily weighs 4300 lbs.

At least they look cooler than the vics.

thisxguy
07-27-2006, 05:35 PM
np ebevo

the chargers do look cooler than the vics...but there's a lot more chargers on the streets than vics. and the vics are easier to spot. i gotta learn how to spot chargers now in the dark =/

u can out-run a charger SRT-8 with turbo-back in a 05 Evo....so no worries on the R/T or the Hemi trims. Chargers weigh 4200+ lbs...heavy lil bastards.
