My roommates and I got into a conversation and it ended up with how fast a state patrol car can go in a pursuit. The claim is that a State Patrol Dodge Magnum will reach 206mph and that it has actually been done and that a Charger will reach 195mph. I think there is not a chance those cars will reach anywhere near that speed. Maybe their "gear ratio" equals out too it, but i highly doubt i would ever see a GSP going over 150mph. So, is this actually possible or are they retarded?

WHOA NITROUS OXIDE BOOSTERS!!!!
WHOA NITROUS OXIDE BOOSTERS!!!!

your friends are smokin crack
your friends are smokin crack
thats what i have been saying. since when do state patrols roll around will built motors and boost?
They can actually go 20,417.4 miles per hour..... Cant outrun a Motorola 
Arizona State Patrol cars (my Crown Vic, anyways) has a top speed of about 135mph. Like others have said though, you can't outrun a radio. The Phoenix helo's come in handy as well in these types of situations.
Agreed. From what I have heard the Mustang Highway patrol cars and they have the stock motor and everything.
i know nc state hwp top out at 150
I am stationed here in GA and someone told me a HUGE LIE just last week. They said that the GA state patrol had a Dodge Viper just for pursuits up I95. LOL! Yeah right!!
don't be so sure, check around Kingsland, they may have had a Viper for police, it could have been a DARE car
Alot of departments have specialized cars, that are usually seized.
I read an article about a year ago, forgot where, but the department had a modd'ed Terminator Cobra, that even with the emissions stuff re-installed, still put out 560'ish whp. Was taken from someone who street raced and got caught like 4-5 times.
In Oklahoma, the highway patrol has Hayabusa bikes.
here in texas, dallas sheriffs have an old LX 5.0 drag car. In Montgomery county, they have a supercharged corvette.
I myself, was personally pulled over by a modded camaro (this was 13-14 yrs ago though).
There are ALOT of "undercover" cars out there that would surpise the hell out of you when the cherries and berries light up.

We all know pretty much every State Police Agency has a whole gamete of specialized cars capable of higher speeds. He's talking about the top speed of a normal patrol car (in this case, a Charger/Magnum).
Ive seen pictures of an 03 Cobra cop car located in NC before. I also know of a corvette cruiser located here in WV due to a program called " beat the heat" It's cops who build their own cruisers, patrol with them, then take them to the track on the weekend for people who want to race cops.
When I had my 06 Dodge Charger I personally topped out at 152 mph before it cut out. I was never out run by anything.
I remember being way behind in a pursuit towards San Antonio on IH 10. I caught up with the pursuit and became the lead officer. All I did was pull right beside them and point the roscoe. They decided to stop.

Newer Crown Vic, Slick Top = 130 - 135mph
Impala, Slick Top = 125 - 130mph
Charger V6, Slick Top = 130 - 140mph
Charger Hemi, Slick Top = 140 - 150mph
Anybody that claims more, is doing it downhill, on a super straight road, with a tail wind.

Oh yeah... They got one. Along with a 350Z. I wonder if WV insures the LEO's personal vehicles..?
