Default Fuzz and the Furious - Drag racing against Texan cop

Dunno if any one else heard the Radio one news at about 10 to 6 tonight?

Seems American Police have got their street racers to go to the drag strips and to try and beat the cops' cars ....


There is a video on BBD Radio 1 newbeat pages where a ( peugot 307?? ) of the newsgirl goes on the drag strip at Santa Pod against the USA cop ... and the cop has a police marked up Scooby!


Must be standard ( had rear tints and i grill badge so likely a Jap Sti ?? ) as it only managed a 14.8 @ 98 mph down the strip ! The newsgirl red lighted and was 19 seconds...!

Not certain that classic right hand drive turbo Imprezas were all that popular in the US

Sorry but in the US and Oz there are drag strips in any decent sized town, for the "lads" to have some fun. It's this cramped rip-off frenzy, noise abatement hell-hole that's "lad" un-friendly.

IMHO
