Default SRT 392 Hemi Challenger CONSTABLE

Just an FYI to everybody, I saw a black 392 Challenger SRT Harris County Constable today. This was over on Fountain View right before Westheimer. The markings were very subtle and hard to see. I've got a picture that I'll post later (on my phone). So, no racing black SRT Challengers!!

^What? They are high 12's stock. A heads cam intake LS1 is better then that unless you can drive or have a horrible set up. My buddy's V2 GTO ran constant 12.2 before sold. (Cam only 5.7)

Thanks for the heads up!!

That's ex-Texan, Mario Williams in that car. I saw him at the UPS dressed up in his tactical gear and car sitting outside a month ago. It has the ghost lettering, and the thinnest light bar I've ever seen, think they are LED's.

The 89 RS went 11.18 on my sole trip to HRP years ago, got kicked. I doub that fat heavy pig would be beside my 3150 lb RS. Update, wrecked it and now the same engine combo is in my 80 coupe that is 2700 lbs, so I really really doubt it. Lol

mario, huh? Did not know that! Ironically, I grew up in Buffalo and still follow my Bills. Maybe he's in town to get his ring back from his ex!!! LOL!! You are right about the car - super thin light bar, ghost lettering, and it had an aftermarket catback.

yall realize that constables, while they are peace officers, only deal with Civil law in most cases... i've never seen a Tarrant County constable do any traffic enforcement. Unless they do traffic down there, i wouldnt worry about him..

lol.. Constables down here DO enforce traffic down here.. little buggers like to hide and then pounce on you like you killed there dog or something when they pull you over..

also "some" of them are not too bright.. was pulled over one night by a constable while driving my single cab Silverado. I wasnt speeding or anything. He comes up to the window and I notice three more pull up behind him.. he asks me to step out of the truck and then once I am out he grills me about where I have been and where I am going.. I tell him, and then ask whats this all about. he tells me they are searching for a black extended cab truck and my truck matched the description... I politely informed the constable that if they where looking for an EXTENDED cab, I ensured him I was not the person they where looking for as I was in a black SINGLE cab truck.
LOL.
He told me to get in my truck and go....
