Police F1 Car, Chopper Bike Hit Capital’s Roads
ABU DHABI — Abu Dhabi Police revved up its road safety and awareness campaign with another display of their F999 car and Falcon Chopper bike, with a drive round the city in the Corniche are on Friday.
The Capital cops have built their own 400kph Formula One type machine which is billed as the fastest police car in the world.
The F999’s engine is from Ireland, the bodywork from Germany and the chassis from Hungary. While the chassis of the F1 cars used by today’s racing drivers can be raised to give up to two centimetres extra ground clearance, the F999 can be raised up to 10cm for accessibility to the different conditions here.
The motor bike was designed by Paul Teutul Sr, whose custom motorcycle firm, Orange County Choppers, is the subject of a popular Discovery Channel TV series shown in 160 countries worldwide. news@khaleejtimes.com
