          that thing sucks in so much a tune isn't necessary.

              They got headlights, wipers, brake lights. All they need is a plate to run on the street.

                I think the cop was probably having more fun - he runs off from him several times.

                    What was wrong with his trailer? Don't think he was going fast enough for it to be a pratice lap. All that police time and disruption to traffice seems to be kinda wasteful.

                      I didn't have volume - probably a promo to generate interest. The cop was seriously showing him taillights several times. If it was to get me interested in anything, it would be the cop car!

                          The Lamborghini guys (at least used to, don't know if they still do...) test their cars on the street in front of the factory.

                          60 Minutes did a piece on it many years ago. Did any of y'all see that video from inside the car? I mean 150 mph downtown. Cars and trucks and traffic and pedestrians, it was nuts.

                              Here it is, circa 1987:




                              EDIT: That's not the right piece. That's not the one where they were testing the cars downtown....sorry....who can find it?
