A little over an hour ago we went outside to meet my oldest son at Alamo Draft House in KC....
WHERE'S THE FUCKING CAR? Well, the wife left it unlocked. As too the key???? We have a crap load of keys. Two blocks from here a dirt bag escaped custody, AND a vehicle was involved in a hit & run several blocks from here. No word on the vehicle description. It's not like a non descript vehicle, 2011 Scion Xb in Voodoo Blue (they only built 2000 worldwide in that color)

That sucks.
Hopefully they don't trash it or crash it before it is recovered. |

The last thing I need is a FAST car. I haven't driven my 1996 Impala SS since I was using it as a Patrol/Pursuit vehicle. Way too much temptation that I can't resist. When you're driving a vehicle that has over $3,000 in suspension upgrades, $2,000 in brake upgrades, AND will do OVER 160 mph. Well....... To give you an idea how I drove it, the last set of 275/40-17's lasted 10,000 miles

Had some tweaker assholes(who else does shit like that?) cut the roof on my wife's convertible last summer while sitting on the boat ramp of a Bourbeuse river access. We were down at the water ~75 yards away when it happened. Took her purse, wallet with the nursing credentials, fishing, driver, and radio license stuff. They threw the library card on the side of the road. They also left the pocket knife they used to cut the roof in the passenger's seat.
County cop takes 3 hours to arrive(they had an active shooter or barricaded shooter situation that day). He picks up the knife and puts it in his shirt pocket. No glove, nothing. Said, "We probably won't be able to get anything off this, just so you know." Thanks a lot!

Two Yamaha crotch rockets thought they could, one wound up 10-50J2, the other under arrest. At 140 mph they decided we could go through the corners quicker than they could. Oh, and if mine couldn't catch them, eeke in his 2002 Camaro SS SLP Package could. |

Rural Highway, grass, dust, gravel, no perfect pavement, NO banking, etc. Crotch rocket, with very little contact to the pavement vs. 4,200 lb vehicle with 275/40-17 W rated STICKY ASS tires and beefed up suspension. I win!

They were 260 in factory trim, and not much gains to be had. Hell, the Callaway forced induction only got the car to 400 flywheel. I'd wager your police Impala SS ran mid 15's in the 1/4.

Sorry for the tangent Typical factory stock times were mid-15's. I would wager low 14's, I could LIGHT 315/35-17's. And yes, it's an LT1 (LT4?) quite a bit was done except forced induction. The factory LT4 corvette engine was 330 hp and the ONLY difference was the cam & heads. You'd be surprised what different heads, cam, and a reprogrammed OBD-1 computer will do.
When I was hanging out on the impalass board, we had a member who went by miamispd. His ImpalaSS was turning LOW 10's! We had another member, autocrosser who could pull OVER 1 g on a skid pad. |

Now that we've switched to the tangent ... I worked at Gateway for a few years, so have seen what every car imaginable runs in the real World. Stock Impala SS's were typically low 16's, ones with ALL the bolt on and street tires ran low 15's. Occasionally one would break barely into the 14's. The LT1 being a bastard motor doesn't have nearly the aftermarket of the LS1. Low 14's could be possible with drag radials, changing the rear end gearing, and stall speed. But only then with a perfect run that I never saw happen in the real World. They're just heavy pigs. 1 G skid pad? I guess anything is possible, on the internet. |

He got a "wild hair" and asked the San Diego BMW club if he could enter their annual autocross event. After they finished laughing they responded "sure". He was running against... M3's M5's And a couple of M1's Out of 77 vehicles entered (76 BMW's & 1 4,200 lb Chevy) he took third! He posted a link to the results. Next year they had a statement on their we site...NO non-BMW vehicles allowed! |

I cannot count how many times I've lent my car to a better driver and they bested my lap times. That's both good and bad. Good in that it shows the car is capable of more. Bad in that it shows there's plenty of room for improvement in the driver.

That almost happened with the KC Prosche club, but luckily two of our autocrossers were PCA members driving old, "slow" Porsches, a 924S and a '74 911S. They routinely took 1st & 2nd at PCA autocross events beating everything else in thier club and they did very well in their SCCA classes as well. However, they did not finish anywhere near Top Time Of Day at SCCA events as many of the cars were purpose built race cars. |

What kind of department lets you use your own car? Let alone an Impala and a Camaro. The liability issues are endless.
Shit! Even Roscoe and Enis got patrol cars?!?! |

Mine was actually an ex Florida Highway pursuit vehicle with 60,000 that they sold off with only the lights removed
Then had all the SLP stuff added -- air induction hood , ram air intake and computer chip Quote HistoryQuoted:

LT1s had a HUGE aftermarket support system from 1993 to around 2002 when the LS1 finally took over completely as king of the street (took a while for enough of them to get on the road and track to convince the LT1s guys to trade up. Plus good ole depreciation / cost factor too).
LT1 Z28s with just headers, a hot cam and 4.10 gears would run a 12,9 all day long. Saw 3 cars do this all modded the same way back in 1997. Now an impala of course is heavier at 4,000lbs vs. 3400 for a Z28 so it of course will be about 1/2 second slower. Side note a 2015 ZL1 Camaro is 4100lbs in STL we had the G.R.A.I.L. club and let me tell you those guys had some FAST impalas. Head / cam / headers would put those things in the low 14s.
Pursuit - what was done to yours? Looks like Eeke had a B4C with a SS hood. What else was done to that one? |
