he F999 – a formula racer decked out with emergency lights on the rear wing and police livery – is a project of the Abu Dhabi Police, and could very well be the fastest police car the world has ever seen.

I don't think that it's likely that anyone is ever going to out run the cops ever again to be honest.

One PIT maneuver and 5 million worth of damaged...

No thanks. I'd prefer helichopper gunships for policing.

I wonder what use there is to be faster if you need half a minute to get out of the car? :D

Don't know about where Toyota went, but perhaps they should have paid more attention to the storm clouds gathering at Goodwood in 2007. Their F1 future was hanging by a thread (or two!!) even then :p

Hey Arrows, notice what's missing from that group... the NASCAR COT Camry that has won several races with Gibbs Racing.

Go figure... ;) :p :

Besides I doubt they would want to use it driving on patrol in the night and rain, it doesn't have headlamp.
