Default Is this where Toyota F1 went?

he F999 – a formula racer decked out with emergency lights on the rear wing and police livery – is a project of the Abu Dhabi Police, and could very well be the fastest police car the world has ever seen.

I don't think that it's likely that anyone is ever going to out run the cops ever again to be honest.

One PIT maneuver and 5 million worth of damaged...

No thanks. I'd prefer helichopper gunships for policing.

I wonder what use there is to be faster if you need half a minute to get out of the car?

Don't know about where Toyota went, but perhaps they should have paid more attention to the storm clouds gathering at Goodwood in 2007. Their F1 future was hanging by a thread (or two!!) even then

Hey Arrows, notice what's missing from that group... the NASCAR COT Camry that has won several races with Gibbs Racing.

Go figure...

Besides I doubt they would want to use it driving on patrol in the night and rain, it doesn't have headlamp.
