Which raises a question... Do stop-sticks work vs. "run-flat" tires?

You think?

Looked like they had a lotta fun. Reminded me of the Shelby GT/H advert where it's being chased by a cop car.........gets pulled over and a cop gets out of the Shelby. Then the other cop has a go in it. Probably my favourite TV ad ever

I couldn't stand to watch him spinning and doing donuts in those gravels, slinging them all up the sides of the car.

Is it just me or did it seem like all they proved is that a new gt500 can't outrun a taurus police car, but if he stops, you can easily go all Tokyo Drift on his butt.... LOL
