Default Most infamous car chase vid

1. I don't believe the kid was 15.
2. I don't think the E30 BMW broke down
3. I don't think that cop car Camaro had 350hp
4. I DO think the person got away

Your thoughts?

that vid is a load of crap, and the announcer has always vomited feces

Best part is when the driver ran the cop of the road with his shoulders, IMHO

I happen to like the cops I know, but that vid shows why some people have a firm opinion that all cops are full of ish.

The 15 year old should have had the shit beat out of him.

Cops are pigs--unless, of course, you need one.

the M3 isn't supercharged car, the Camaro doesn't make 350 hp, the M3 didn't break down - the end shot showing it is a snippet from an earlier scene. So what exactly convinces you the driver was 15?

The kid got away. His father turned him in. His father was/is a BMWSCCA instructor, that's how the kid apparently learned how to drive. I do not feel like providing sources for the above, so take it how you want.

So many facts misrepresented in the video!

Gotta love the M3 brakes though. Also, how could the cop be faked out so bad by a "shoulder" move?

Note to self - always signal lane changes when running from the cops.

Damn, I was afraid it was the end for an e30...

I do agree with the "kid deserves a beating" comment though.
