Slow Piggies

Here are the specs for a new standard (I believe) police car a 2001-2002 Crown Victoria.

Engine: 4.6 Litre 281 cubic inch (V8?) rated at 235 HP @ 4750 RPM and 275 ft.lbs. of torque @ 4,000 RPM.

Ok. Not bad, and very fast. Now look at the specs for my 96 Z28 camaro which with luck I will be purcahsing withing a few months:

Engine: 5.7 Litre 350 cubic inch V8 rated at 285 HP @ 5200 RPM and 325 ft.lbs. of torque @ 2,400 RPM.

Camaros get going faster a heck of a lot sooner then the cruisers because of more torque at a lower RPM rating.

HAHA! My car is going to have more power then a POLICE CAR! Wahoo! Thats hilarious. Poor little slow piggies. I bet they wish they had a camaro... to bad they gotta drive a CROWN VICTORIA!
