    those C7 will get ya!

    Not necessarily off the line or at a roll, but later on when you find they were undercover cops.

    I know the article doesn't state it, but the video is recorded using the pdr installed in All so optioned c7s from the factory.

    They got to be careful how they do that. It could be considered entrapment depending on the case...

    Seems like putting the officers out in view would be better than hiding in the bushes for an undercover to call it in.
    Since their goal is to stop racing and keep the street safe.

    But maybe that's because it's my backyard. Will definitely think twice before playing with a new vette

    Chuck not sure how old you are but I remember when TX SP dropped the 5.0 Mustangs like a night of Taco Bell for the IROCs in the early 90's.

    They were owning a lot of C4 Corvettes that thought they couldn't be caught like in the 5.0's.

    So my question is did the state seize a vette for this or go out and buy. I'm guessing they seized it since buying a C7 would be against a departments better judgment when it comes to accountability with its money.

    West TX has a few Vettes as speed interceptors.
