Yes, The California Highway Patrol Also
Use Camaro
These cars are being used more and more by the Police and
by
the city police. Apparently the request was made so they can keep
up with the bad guys. When I lived in California some years back,
I had the privilege of also catching a glimpse of a Highway Patrol
Chevrolet Corvette with the same paint scheme shown above. I
Heard that there were a few placed into service a few years back
for some mid-state extended straight highways like Interstate 5.
The 2001 IROC - Highlights are also available
for viewing.
Photos include Dale Earnhardt's Last IROC Year
Series Races,
Plus an airbrushed rendition of Dale during his Drag Racing Days.
