Default Pics from the Cops and Rodders police escort/carshow

This Saturday we were lucky enough to have a police escort to the Cops and Rodders carshow that is held by the Atlanta Police Dept. each year to benefit the Special Olympics. Unlike most boring police escorts, we get to go at high speed through downtown Atlanta! The fastest speed I heard was from an 08' who hit 140mph! A BIG thanks to the police officer who helps set this up every year and lets us have a little fun getting to the show while he moves everyone out of the way for us!! We ended up with 16 Vipers, 2 Ford GTs, and a Prowler owned by GA-VCA members who attended the show. One of the GT's won 1st place in its class and the Viper club won the "Best car club participation" award!


On the bridge waiting for the police escort car to show up:















On the way to the show...at 120+ mph! You can see the escort at the front of the line with his lights on to get people out of the way











Everyone made it in one piece and no speeding tickets, thanks to our escort!




The two coolest Vipers ever!
















One of the few cop cars that may be able to catch a Viper!


Me being very brave:

That looks like it was a damn good time. I take back anything Ive ever said that may have offended you sir. You truly redeemed yourself with this one.

You've got a lot more going on up there than anything that's close in FL. Whenever you've got a large gathering worth driving up for, gimme a shout. Ill see how many of the Jax boys I can gather for a trip up.

yeah, you seem to post more pics than anyone on here and yet your camera sucks

thanks for sharing
looks like you guys had some fun

there was an event like that down in Utah and it was the end of a Ferrari Enzo
it hit over 200mph and hit a dip in the road
the driver was ok but the car was in many, many pieces

Looks like a great event with a big turnout for you! Thank you for the pictures.
Even if the Vette guys didn't appreciate it as much.
