Re: Rabbit Chase (non roc)

Bahaha!! I thought I was the only one who chuckled at that one!

Yeah, it looks like the Wabbit got totalled at the end, cause if you 
watched in the background after the guy jumped out, the car hit a tree at 
what looks like 20mph-- which should be enough to kill it completely.

The part where the cop lost it was hilarious-- you see the Rabbit take a 
90' right without any body roll, and the cop just locks his wheels (what 
kind of cop car doesn't have ABS?) and plows straight ahead into someone's 
yard, knocking over a little statuette.  Was really funny.

Did any of you guys see the one where the cops were chasing an A2 Jetta 16V 
on the highway in California?  That was amazing, cause they couldn't keep 
up with him-- the narrator kept paying the car compliments-- At 120mph, you 
saw the cops all over the road, and the Jetta was poised and controlled.

And then the Jetta did a quick U-turn and the cops just went straight-- not 
a chance they were going to be able to stop and turn that fast...

It was funny.  Until the doofus jumped out of the car (what is it with VW 
owners and jumping?) and got caught.
