Program Lets Teens Drag Race with the Police!
Street racing is not only incredibly popular, but it is incredibly dangerous and illegal as well. One program was designed to grab the attention of teens looking to have a little fun with their cars, and do so in a way that promotes a little civil obedience. Top the Cops™ is its name, and it all goes down at the Sonoma Raceway in Sonoma, California.
The program continues to be a success in lowering the number of street races reported. However, it does have its limits, as it is only open to high school aged drivers. Although the majority of street racers are this old or in their 20’s, there are a large number of sports car owners that do not take the time to sign up at the strip. Even still, the idea is to spread safety information and give teens the knowledge and experience needed to make good decisions the rest of the time. To make things even sweeter, since the program’s beginning, at least 5 of the Top the Cops™ competitors have gone on to graduate from the police academy of their choosing.

The wing on this car is made out of a tin roof from an old barn and it's powered by a ford big block on a tube chassie, that's a pretty cool combination! Keeping the car in a rat style look just gives it more personality. It might not be the fastest, nor the prettiest, but we love it!

Very nice... we love Mopar!! What about you?The second generation Chevy II is in show rooms for the 1966 model year ans is now partially based on the Super #Nova concept vehicle. The Nova SS standard equipment is a 194 cu in inline six cylinder engine, but the full arsenal of Chevrolet large and small blocks is available for the Nova SS. The Base SS version would cost just $159.00 more than the entry level 400 version in 1966.
