We sincerely hope that the data in this report will assist you in making your selection of patrol vehicles for 1996. You are encouraged to review the information contained in this report in light of the needs of your agency. The factors that we base our scores upon, particularly in the acceleration and top speed categories, are tailored to our needs, which may be quite different from yours. For example, a vehicle that fails to meet our 0–100 acceleration requirement may be very adequate for use by many departments who need quick acceleration to 60 or 70 mph. We want you to be aware that the best car for your agency may be different from the one we identify for our use. The following police patrol package and special service package vehicles were evaluated this year: Chevrolet Caprice .................................................... 5.7L SPFI Chevrolet Caprice .................................................... 4.3L SPFI Ford Crown Victoria ................................................ 4.6L MPFI Ford Crown Victoria ................................................ 4.6L MPFI (CNG) Ford Crown Victoria ................................................ 4.6L MPFI (Non-ABS) Chevrolet Lumina .................................................... 3.1L SPFI Chevrolet Camaro.................................................... 5.7L SPFI (Auto) Chevrolet Camaro.................................................... 5.7L SPFI (6-Spd) Chevrolet Geo Tracker ............................................ 1.6L MPFI (2wd) Jeep Cherokee .......................................................... 4.0L MPFI (4wd) Ford Explorer ........................................................... 4.0L MPFI (4wd) The Ford Crown Victoria non-ABS car was submitted for brake testing only. Since the braking systems on the two Chevrolet Camaros are identical, only the automatic transmission equipped car was submitted for brake testing. Most of the test cars were tested on Goodyear Eagle RS–A tires; however, the Jeep Cherokee

In The Brown Bullet, Bill Poehler uncovers the life of a long-forgotten trailblazer and the great lengths he took to even get on the track, and in the end, tells how Rajo Jack proved to a generation that a black man could compete with some of the greatest white drivers of his era, wining some of the biggest races of the day.
