Until technology evolves far enough to offer us a more efficient alternative, we'll stick to our more or less analogue police busts, and we're here to give you a high-octane one. This motorized law enforcement session takes place in Florida and involves quite some horsepower.
A group of high-output machines was out at play on the streets at night, when a police officer in a Dodge Charger decided to bring their high-speed adventure to a stop. The police did use a respectable car, any street racer has to give them that much.

The list of cars involved includes a Viper, a GT-R and a Supra. The drivers had quite the score to settle since none of the three was in stock condition. To be more precise, the GT-R's tuning-friendly character allowed its owner to take it to 1,100 HP. The Viper had received a twin-turbo setup that boosted it to 950 HP, while the Supra was the most modest of the lot, with 800 HP.

The three machines were together with a group of other performance vehicles, including some Corvettes, when they passed by the cop. The Viper and the GT-R soon decided it was time for a little street race, while the Supra was being used as a camera car, sitting behind them.

We won't throw too many spoilers at you, but we can confirm the two kicked off the fight and dialed things up to over 160 MPH (258 KM/H). So no, it wasn't exactly a silent night.
