In fact, they cleaned it up so that refugees from hurricane Katrina could live there till FEMA got their acts together, but even the refugees refused to live in Victorville...

Haha what do you know about old Barstow? It is a pretty disgusting place. I was stationed in a tiny Marine Corps. base there.

I hated seeing him tear up that nice Camaro. He did the same thing to a cherry El Camino on Monster Garage. He doesn't give a shit about nice cars.

Runflats only run flat for so many miles, and I'm guessing the number of miles drastically decreases the faster you go. If I remember right, I think you're not supposed to go above 35 or 45 MPH with them once your tires are punctured (pretty much just there to get you to a tire shop sans tow truck) But thats what I HEARD, so I could be wrong

ahh it kills me when he throws that rock sign to the chopper and they still go running past him!

That episode was pretty cool, I thought. I thought it was rice that he let them stay on his tail at the beginning, because he shoulda' pulled right away from the start. I agree that he shouldn't have been driving around the other people like he had, but I thought the preview show stated it was supposed to be in a closed-down residential area. It wasn't completely though. I also didn't like that he just waited for them to come get him either, and then have the car stall on him when they finally get there. I think it pizzed me off more to see him totally beat-up on that nice car and only call a draw on the first attempt and barely make it past 20 minutes on the double or nothing. Given, if he just took off, it wouldn't have been much of a show, but it didn't seem all that representative because a suspect isn't just going to stop and wait in a real chase, IMO. The 800 horse' statement was just stupid too, because I could've swore JJ said it was a 200 or 250-shot at the beginning of the segment.

My bottom line: it was an entertaining episode but not really practical or representative. I'll keep watching though
