I thought I knew that driving style from somewhere. Too bad they caught him. Re-runs from now on.

Post by: Munkii on May 03, 2004, 11:50:31 AM: Just saw this. This chase started right in front of my house. There were no cops behind him yet, so I followed for a second, not knowing how dangerous he was, but then cops showed up and I went back home. The PITed him in the neighborhood and he kept going, then 3 more times on the interstate. Finally they knocked him off the road into the sign. Turns out I've met the guy a couple of times at a few parties.

What kind of car was that? At first I thought it was a Mustang (general shape, the hood, and the rear quarter windows) but the taillights were wrong, so then I thought maybe it was a Celica, or maybe a Cougar or Mitsubishi of some sort. FWD would explain how he was able to get it righted.

Post by: Munkii on May 03, 2004, 12:15:53 PM: It was a blue V6 mustang. It had an aftermarket wing with a goofy exhaust tip.

He's already out on bail. I saw him around the neighborhood driving a older green camaro today. That's the justice system at work. He get's a 50,000 bail, and bonds out with 5,000. He's an admitted drug-dealer, they should have known he had the money to get out.

Post by: DiabloTX on May 03, 2004, 10:47:48 PM: Bah. Once you start spinning throw it in neutral, correct with proper steering input, straighten out, throw it back in the right gear and you're off. It *looks* much harder than it is.

"When the COP walks up to your car, just pull away. Make that bastard run, for he will chase you.

Post by: VOR on May 04, 2004, 08:12:25 AM: Wife and I were watching the video (and shamelessly cheering for the bad guy) when she brought up that something in the engine reacts poorly to the spinout..ie, kills the engine. I've been in a couple of unintentional spins on the interstate and pulled a few doughnut in parking lots, but never had my engine die in the process. I think she's batty but she insists she "heard it somewhere". Can you auto experts settle it for us?

:D

Post by: moose on May 04, 2004, 10:37:23 AM: well, if its a 5 speed and the guy doesnt shift into neutral the sudden drop in speed prolly stalled it
Title: Car chase
Post by: VOR on May 04, 2004, 05:00:35 PM: Moose, assuming it was automatic OR that the driver shifts to neutral, is there any reason for an engine to stall when the car spins?
Title: Car chase
Post by: Cougar68 on May 04, 2004, 05:08:00 PM: Not at all VOR. The only thing that would cause the engine to stall is if the wheels are trying to spin backwards while you're in a forward gear, and with an automatic even that won't do it most of the time.
