The Hummer is a dominant sign of American military power and as if it needed a stronger image, a Texas sheriff decided to have it pimped with even more testosterone. The request was to turn his personal emergency vehicle into the world’s fastest police HUMMER represented a special challenge. Now it has a 7.0-liter engine with 700 hp (515 kW) it also has a brutal torque output which peaks at 904 Nm at 4,260 rpm and top speed of 250 km/h. I wouldn’t like to have this guy chasing me.

Wow, Hummers are made like 15 minutes from my house in good ol’ South Bend, Indiana. 🙂
So you wouldn’t like to be chased by this thing…you might consider changing direction…like going round a bend, which this heap of over-engined junk probably cannot do.
graham is right, if this guy were chasing you with that much torque and speed, a sharp turn would be enough to cause him to rollover about 40 times. a sharp 180 degree turn, or if you’re really cool, and have an EMP gun. you could shut that POS down and wipe the ob2 cpu, and cause the airbags to deploy.
What if the chase went through a park, and the H2 could not fit in the gate?
Hummers are 8.5 ft wide, built to fit in tank tracks, so even though it has 700hp, it would not be very good in an offroad chase.
ROFL An EMP gun….wow. Anyway, if you were even running from this guy that fast in the first place and turned like you say, you also would suffer the fate of flipping your car until your wake looked like a junkyard. Also, most non noob cops are trained to slow down to a safe enough speed before making a turn even if they end up flying past you. With all the gear and horsepower police have they know that missing their turn isn’t the end of the chase. And in the future….you will be SOL once a cop tags your back bumper with a gps shot from the police cars front bumper. After that they can hand back and watch you wear yourself out and make a mistake if they want.
