Can you guys outrun THIS cop car?

[nudemetalz]

Can't see the NZ popo getting one of these.
Where would the p-addicts arrested be put, huh?

[scumdog]

Bound to be a KB :tugger: that will say 'no sweat' :rolleyes:

[nzmikey]

Give it a crack ... Would be fucked on the straights but would make some room in the twisty shit, afaik they dont go too well around corners .

I cant see there being alot of twisty shit in the UAE tho :laugh:

[Banditbandit]

Yeah .. Naaa bro ... You're dreamin' .... "don't go too well around corners" is a relative thing .... one of these would be all over the fastest bike on the road ...

[Gremlin]

Lets go for that debate again. Just find Tiff Needle having a head to head in a Civic Type R, vs a CBR1000RR (I think). Mid corner, he had more grip in the car because of the fat tyres.

The Veyron has launch control and all wheel drive, oh, and seriously large contact patches on those huge tyres.

[nudemetalz]

Me thinks running a matt black Falcon which has just run over spikes off the road may cost a little bit in panel damage to the Veyron.....

'NO SWEAT!!"...bring that flash 4 wheeled piece of crap to New Brighton!(Pot hole central!)...ANYTHING! with decent ground clearance will kick the shit out of it!...so:bleh::laugh:

And besides...
With highly trained officers such as yourself driving, plus with your guys wonderful record of writing off cars, and flogging the absolute crap! out them through totally unnessacery hard driving!....One of these toys would last a day!...maybe two! before it was either blown to pieces or wrapped around a tree! :laugh:

...how good is your insurance?

If he could drive well, he'd have any bike on the road though.

I think it also has something to do with bikes suspension when on an angle not working as well as a cars?
But I'm no physics buff, a Veyron will hump and sport bike in the real world.

Surprisingly, it'll "only" out accelerate a 1000cc spasticbike over 240-250 odd in ideal conditions. But in anything other than ideal it'd happily have one

[carbonhed]

A Kiwi cop would reduce a Veyron to a lengthy smear of rubble in no time at all.

[BoristheBiter]

Bound to be a KB :tugger: that will say 'no sweat' :rolleyes:

Piece of cake.
If you guys got that there would be no budget left for someone to drive it.:laugh:

[EJK]

People in Dubai must have been playing far too much Need For Speed: Hot Pursuit.

[BigAl]

Rossirep could and even pull wheelies whilst doing it :headbang:

[Bald Eagle]

Couldnt catch anything after parking it in sth orks, need tyres to go anywhere

[awa355]

This has more style.

[avgas]

Get away from it.
Just stop - by the time he has realised - he is doing 400kph.
That is 111m/s
Say it takes him 15 seconds to realise and similar to slow down he is a good couple of km down the road.

A decent car will piss all over a bike in the corners, you're dreaming if you think you'd "make room" in the twisty shit

Good shit - I'll take to carrying one of them in my hip-pocket in case I need it some time!:niceone:

now you are just being silly

[Drew]

1.67 seconds to 100ks. FUUUUUCK me that's impressive.

I wouldn't try and run from it, on any bike I've owned. Only thing that makes runners possible on bikes really, is acceleration. Take that advantage away, and bikers will be killing themselves a lot more than they do now.

Don't know where you got that from bro. Just under 2.5 is the quoted time. Still fucking quick. 1/4 mile between 9.9 to 10.2 depending on model.

They do 0-300 in 16.7 however.

My chinese scooter does 57km/h down a mild hill. Would walk that beetle no sweat.

and 1000 horsepower

[EJK]

Honestly, the veyron don't surprise me much. Veyron is as common as Mazda 3 when compared to Aston Martin One-77.

One-77 cop car on the other hand.......

Easy as... just go off road or find a street with lots of speed bumps.

First result that came up when I googled it. 1000 odd horse power, weighs about the same as an FJ1200, seemed legit.

[Madness]

This thread seemed appropriate to ask the following question; Is this for real?

You guys are all forgetting the pursuit speed limit for Mr plod we have. And all the other red tape that'd tangle it's wheels before it got 100 yards down the road.....

quite...

you pay for it.
:D



i'd fuck it up with science.

yeah. abou 160 innit. until "just before" you crash.

[nzmikey]

160 is what is quoted over the radio ... it is prob closer to 180 ... if they can get the sack up to that speed without sliding the car out 1st

NZ govt would order this with an econo / electric 2L motor.

[The Reibz]

The Ohio State patrol converted a seized Busa into a patrol bike. Was pretty epic, wouldn't make me think twice about speeding. Like somebody said before. To much red tape for the pigs to chase you past 180kph

[Smifffy]

"A police spokeswoman said the pursuit was abandoned before the officers were able to change out of first gear."...

"The minister today denied in parliament that the absence of the Veyron from patrol duties had anything to do with recent reports of a truck driver seeing 'a blue and white blur' doing a U-turn in front of him."

"Police today announced the arrest of constable Green after it emerged that the Veyron he was driving was not actually standard government issue, but was provided at his own expense from the proceeds of his methamphetamine ring."
