I was amazed at the quickness of this car. I got in a two block race with a new, full sized chevy pickup, I won, the pickup driver was more surprised than I was. (too bad there was no money on it.) It handled beautifully, I know a cop that was chasing somebody in an Escort Gt. He said as long as the guy was going in a straight line he could keep up to him but by turning lots of corners the Escort finally lost him. I always kept that in the back of my mind but never had to do it.
