I'll answer off topic. Aerodynamocs are a funny thing. I have been in a Viper at 120 and you couldn't feel the air, but at 55 the air hitting the back of one's head was substantial. So, maybe an ash can hang in the air. Radar is absolutely accurate nowadays. I have been using radar for 19 years. I know when I am getting a strange reading, a ghost reflection, a good reading of if I am being jammed. I sat at the end of a runway at Fresno Airport and clocked an F-16 landing at 140 MPH. I went to the other end and clocked another F-16 taking off. Before he went over the top of my car I got 220 MPH on the radar. I have a 3 digit position so I assume my radar goes up to 999 MPH. Yes, regardless of what you are driving, I "can" catch you. My Crown Vic is good for 135 MPH. The Camaro I am going to get in 2 months goes 168.9 MPH. My Motorola functions at approximately 189,000 Miles per second. Our fixed wing aircraft max out at 220 or 240 MPH. Helicopter about 115-145. The only problem is, you can't run 200 MPH for very long until you run into traffic or a bridge abutment. I would safely say, here in the pursuit capital of california (Fresno) 1 out of 100 completely get away. (Car and driver). 1 out of 30 the driver gets away but leaves the car. 1 out of 10 crash into something. As a response to the tongue and cheek question. You can probably outrun me in your vette, but frankly, I don't care. I've had dozens of people take off on me that I didn't even chase, just let them go. Not worth my life to chase someone, if it isn't absolutely safe to do so. The average CHP Officer spends a heck of a lot of time traveling at speeds of 100+ MPH in all kinds of traffic. After a while it becomes very routine. The average person or even above average person. Doesn't visit 100 MPH very often. What we bank on is that the inexperienced person is going to blow it sooner or later. Mostly what we do with ultra high speed drivers, is shadow them for as long as it takes. Eventually something will happen which will slow them down.
