Hi to all....
Just letting you know that I saw a new BF MK2 Typhoon(Orange) patrol car going after someone today on South Dowling street near Kensington....It was unmarked with very dark tinted windows.....It's an 80kph zone but traffic usually flows at 90(not in peak hour of course) and you'll always have someone flying through at 90-100kph. Be aware!! Cheers. Doug |

They (F6 undercover) are all over the place. Saw one Breeze F6 booking people in Wetherill Park all day. A few weeks ago there was an Octane doing the same.
Someone was telling me they are using the old and the new as well over the Xmas period. You could get caught in an old ute for all we know.... don't race and don't speed... you might send the government broke.

Blue F6 got my mate the other night at padstow.
Chucking a U-turn to go to maccas, Almost worth seeing how quick the thing caught up to us.

There are 10 of these unmarked typhoons in NSW now.
Be careful, they are trying to bait people into street racing. Theres a good thread on this on Ls1 http://www.ls1.com.au/forum/showthread.php?t=87214 |

nothing new about baiting ppl... i remember a few years ago.. undercover holden utes everywhere along the M1 between brisbane and the gold coast trying to get ppl to race them... then book them... one night a group of us returning home from the coast spotted one... so we boxed him in.... just for the fun of it....a car in front... a car behind.. and he was in the left lane.. so a few cars sat to the right of him... he must have been ****ed off... coz once we broke the formation... he took off like a bat out of hell and took the very next exit... (we didn't box him in to stop him booking people doing the wrong thing) ahh.. the things we did when we were young and stupid... |

Down the end of Victoria St in Wetherill Park (Next to Subaru) There is ALWAYS police there, the sign out the front says driver training or something along those lines. I've seen copius amounts of marked and unmarked police cars scream out of there, including the breeze typhoon. They also sit at the top of the hill with the radar.
If you ever go to victoria st mcdonalds at around 6:30 on a staurday morning, half the car park is unmarked xr6t's and marked xr8's/commo ss |

Would it be against forum rules if we start a "Unmarked POlice Car " thread and name the cars and what location they are in?

the easiest way to tell an unmarked car (no matter what it is) they have dark tinted windows and atleast 1 aerial on the boot (some have more), the term "unmarked" means just that (they are not maked with any stickers etc) that does not mean you cant pick them : it would be interesting to to see if someone could take a video of any that are trying to bait people into racing them :evil3:

Cheap and nasty way........ the "spy" cameras with audio from ebay. Plug them into a handycam and bingo..... I have seen footage, and you can clearly hear the car behind reving his engine and trying to bait the driver. Regards Paul

Tassie Unmarked cars are nearly all light blue VE's with steelie wheels and led lights in the grill that stand out a mile away. I'd be very ashamed if one of them got me. They used to absolutely thrash a 4 door focus sedan but I'd say they have killed it by now. I've seen it fly up over kerbs in heavy traffic.

here in the west i've seen an orange ve ss commodore on our freeways having a feast twice... both times he had a wrx pulled over on the side of the mitchell freeway. Both incidents i've seen were about 3 months apart so he's obviously caught heaps of people between then. Feel sorry for the wrx's because chances are the cop probably provoked them. oh well just be careful dragging an orange ve ss on mitchell freeway boys and girls...
