Car with all of that instant speed/torque and they couldn’t hold their own in a chase. Ridiculous

They didnt charge the car at the start of the shift and the cop was driving it for 9 hours before the chase. How is this any different than sending a Ford out on the streets with a quarter tank of gas?
