Yeah..I don't get the point of this. If you really ran from the cops in a McLaren, you would definitely get caught. Traffic, bad roads/pot holes, road blocks, and police radios would stop you from getting away with it. Somebody would recognize the car and you'd be screwed. It wouldn't be worth going to jail over. If you're rich enough to buy a McLaren, you're rich enough to pay for a speeding ticket.

Anyone who's played NFS: Hot Pursuit 2 would know that even a McLaren can't keep the cops off you. :lol:
 
ACtually.....You run from the police.......Report your car stolen...and get it back scuff free the next day for 30 bucks....(towing cost)......It's worked for me many a times, and the sherif even had my liscence plate.
 
Just an FYI for them - in the UK, the quickest police helicopter is, I believe, South Yorkshire's, which tops out at 140mph (in a straight line...). The absolute record for a helicopter is the Westland Lynx at 333mph, but a standard police chopper won't catch an M5. In a straight line (find one of those on British roads... :D).

Still. They are quite, quite mad.
 
i know so many people that got away, so many times, its unbelieveable. ill admit though, i ran away from the cops too, only once though, yes only once ive ran away from the cops, and i was about 17 at the time. what happened was, on my way home from picking up my younger bro from gymnastics, we happened to stop at a red light next to this kid we know, and he was in his moms mustang gt, while i had a honda crx at the time. yea guess what happened, we raced, but that kid didnt have much experience with manuals, so he stalled, while i took off. i had about maybe 5 car lenghts on him by the time he took off. as soon as he did, he started gaining on me really quick, and just passed me. after that he started to slow down, and so did i, then all of a sudden, i see this bright ass spot light blinding me, then the blue/red lights flashing. the mustang slows down first, so im in front him, trying to pull over to the right. my intentions were to pull over, but when i looked in my rear view mirror, the mustang had stopped sooner than i thought, so i was maybe 6 car lenghts ahead of it, and still rolling, then my brother yells, runaway! it seemed like the cop only wanted to pull the mustang over, but i wasnt sure, and my bro only pressured me more, so i just floored it, and took this turn into the neighborhood, i knew my way around that area, so i had no problem finding a place to hide. after waiting for about 10 minutes, i went to the house that kid(the mustang driver) was goin to, he was dropping some people off that i knew, so i knew where he was goin. i asked him about what happened(looked pissed), he told me that there were like 2 cops that just passed him, and were looking for me. went on to tell me the cops were asking him about who i was, but forgot what else he said. i started to worry, so i decided to stay at the friends house for awhile. stayed there for about 30 min, and went home a different way. so yea, i got away with it.

That is the dumbest and most immature thing I have ever heard. How did you get away? Drifting?

You're such an idiot......
No this happened back when I had a Honda....I had a civic HB with a B16A SiR II swap into it, and I just got it....It was about 9:30 and I was coming back from Firebird international raceway after finding out it was closed for that thursday for some gay ass reason...Anyway, I was coming back next to a friend of mine (friend with a stock 240sx)......And I decided I wanted to test it out, so I floored it and floored it untill the spedometer just started clicking for a while....then we ( 240sx drivers brother was in the car aswell) got a call and all he said was "we just passed a sheriff"....The Sheriffs here drive ford Explorers just as FYI.......
So I was going to get off the freeway in hopes that he didn't see me........to no avail come the stop light he's on my ass and hits his lights. Me being a dumb 16 year old I think "I can't lose my engine already" So I punch it through the red light, and the Sheriff tries to follow, but can't....I then gun it down the freeway and apparently some civilian saw the whole ordeal so he tried to keep pace with me and kept flickering his high beams as to alert where I was. After about 30 minutes of driving (off the freeway after about 4 exits) and dodging that damn persons car who flashed the high beams about 3 times....I made it to my friends house and we covered it with a tarp.....The next morning at about 3AM we parked it infront of my friends aunts house.....Went home....at 7:40AM I reported my car stolen....and his aunt reported a stolen car some time......At about 9:00 we're leaving my friends house to go find some food, and I see a tow truck go buy with my car on the back...I follow it in....pay the 30 buck towing fee...And get off scott free with my car....I even made an insurance claim because I had all of my interior out....So I got quite a bit for that...:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D

There was also another time where A cop spotted me racing a CRX, so I turned down the first street...(right)..then made another right, and there's a cop sitting there with his lights off....Just as I get situated on that road..he turns his headlights and flashies on, so I aim right for him..dead on gunning it....Then I swerve out of the way at the last minute....All of this was done to ensure he didn't pull infront of me to block me off.........THAT I admit was a REALLY dumb move, because if things had gone differently I could have hit a cop head on and got ALOT worse of a penalty....but anywho...I was lucky as hell on that one...Ever since i've been "generally" obeying the law......But there are still times..

yeah....envy it
 
Well, even if they have a McLaren F1, they wouldnt get away. Cops have radio's, and can call for back up. The can block roads ahead, and make you go in the direction that they want you to go, and right into their trap (usually a spike strip). And if you do have a shotgun etc., its not going to be like in video games or the movies. You are outgunned. If you do happen to have some major guns (Uzi, .45, kevlar vest, etc), chances are, they are going to get better weapons as well, and maybe even some military help (which would put you up against M4's, M16's, PSG-1's) and if your even worse than that, they might have to resort to killing you by destroying the car...
 
if i was going to run away from the cops i'd ditch the Mclaren f1 and jack one of these. Sure they'll eventually take me down but not without a fight! KABOOM!

Can I just remind everyone of this sentence, from the Acceptable Use Policy before this continues further?

"You will not use these forums to violate any laws nor to discuss illegal activities."

Carry on.
 
Why is everybody still obsessed with the McLaren? The Bugatti Veryon is the fastest! THE VERYON! (Well, assuming you believe the manufacturer's claims....)

Anyway, this thread is idiotic.

Some guy on drugs already stole one of those in LA. He ran into some stone barriers on the side of the highway, a cop climbed into the tank and shot him.
 
He was like an ex national guard guy I think it was....but yeah....anywho, about the "radio" comment.....About 20 minutes in each direction from phx is a indian reservation...cops can't touch ya once ya cross the lines.

Actually, he wasn't on drugs, he had a mental problem and went crazy.
 
...except the guy in the tank who was shot dead.

I just watched "Rising Sun" again... There's NO hope in hell those LAPD cruisers could catch up with that lovely Wiegert Vector W8... :D
