During a typical chase footage, host John Bunnell tells us that the suspect is driving an RX7 sports car. Then, later, remarks that the fleeing suspect "...unleashes all 285 horsepower of his powerful sports car."
After the crash, the closup footage clearly shows that he was driving a first generation RX7 which is a very small car on the order of a Datsun 240Z and has only 105 horsepower.
Mr Bunnell is the TV king of hyperbole.
