I don't.

I know there is no way my Metro could have done it. I would have had to punch the clutch, the brake and maybe even popped the E brake just for good measure.
I know that the 1996 Camaro Police Service Package I had would mop the street with just about anything including the riced out compacts, but in the end it really did not matter worth a crap. Speed is an illusion in the fact that there is ALWAYS someone faster. Even when I put a 100 shot in that car there were still races I did not win. Yes, it was on the track.
Your best bet is to drive smarter rather than faster. Please understand I say this in a caring manner. You had no idea how fast he was going to come over, and there is the possibility you may not have made it. If you did not have that power at your command you would have hit the brakes. Your fancy motoring did not help you, buddy, it almost got you killed.
Please don't be offended, just think about it for a little bit.
