    Run From The Cops

    Ok, The way this show was produced made me a bit angry. One I like watching Jesse James, don't get me wrong.



    It was the Script the pissed me off. How the cops kept saying he went on public roads and in a residental neighborhood. Anyone that watched it knewthat was an abandon neighborhood, probably the same one Mythbusters used for some Driving Myths.

    I believe it is that Abandon Airforce base



    As for the Golf Course, It looked like it was planned, as there was a parked golf cart.

    At the start of going into the so called Residental area, there was 2 cars besides him and the cops.

    All the buildings appears very abandoned, which is what I would expect for a closed course which we all know it was. However the cops pretending for the camera Jesse had went Rogue and left the course was total crap.



    Good Show and concept, poor scripting.

    The airport has been used for many Hollywood movies, including Face/Off and Jarhead, and was namechecked (as Victorville) in The War of the Worlds.
    In late 2006, SCLA became home to Air Tanker 910 which is on contract to the California Department of Forestry (CALFIRE). Tanker 910 is the only wide-body jet currently in-service and uses SCLA as its re-loading base for fires occurring anywhere in California.

    Run from the cops, the show had some tallent by the cops but Jesse was better the cops cried to much, I think the car hurt Jesse yea it had the power but it lacked in all other areas. Tire choice, Run Flat or another tire that can take and withstand a beating, low torque and good top end is the preformance the engine and tranny need to out preform the cops. I think Jesse needs to pick a another car with AWD and go from there and have the cops back for round TWO. Hope to see it.....

    My camaro only has 400hp and a 175 shot of n.o.s 400 +175 remember math class = 575 not 800 . Try a police scanner if i was going to out run the cops i'd have one and some run flats.

    watching Jesse James build things is cool, in that area he is very skilled/experienced. this show on the other hand ????????
    obviously scripted in a way as to not seem so ... lame
    800 hp from a nitrous kit, possible but doubtful in that installation
    100 mile an hour chase in a camaro with a top speed of like 170 ...
    pointless sound effects; generic engine cranking sound over the sound of a running engine? which would be continuous cranking with no fuel, exploding sound as already flat tires leave rims and clanking sound as tire contacts door ?
    and my absolute FAVORITE, jet engine sounds upon nitrous activation COME ON super duper duper LAME
    all four ties hit spike strips with visible sticking to lr tire yet only front go flat ? and driving for several minutes on rims, sliding around turns with no sparking grinding signs of heat or even worn pain on the black rims????
    this show was advertised on powerblock to people who should be knowledgeable to a least some of these thing and probably a ton i missed. i expected something less disappointing from jesse james if the whole series is this fake i see no point to continue watching

    yea that was kinda lame. i was hoping for more. it was completely abandoned so there really was no danger. the cops blew it wayyyy out of porportion like they always do. and yea definitely not 800hp. not even close. maybe 400. and a z28 is only about 325 at the crank minus 25% because it was an auto and add 175 shot 450 on spray at the max. if this is what is to become of this series i think its gonna fail. maybe its just a warm up.

    Really ? The first episode was killer, just like VONTAR the scripting in this episode was brutal. Why the hell would you ruin a good high speed / stunt show with some dopey script ? The close up on the dudes face in the chopper was weak, and Sargent Assclown freaking out like a maniac when he got stuck and then spiked was horribly over acted. Here is a great idea, put a show together where STUNTS take place and leave it at that. People don't always need dialog to keep interest, if you want audio then throw on a heavy metal audio overlay for most of the chase.

    If you keep making the episodes like this, then mark my words you will NOT have any viewers. People who are watching this show are probably watching it for Jesse James or the stunts, not to see the next Gone With The Wind, so scripts are not needed. If your running out of ideas already on what to do or need to figure out how to stretch the show to make it fit a 1 hour time slot then open it up to the public and listen to the feedback.

    If you think that all you have to do is film stuff, and put it on TV to get viewers, then you have never been more wrong.

    Jesse James is killer at what he does and has a great image, but the producers/editors of this show would be more productive working at WalMart.

    I agree with most comments. It was too fake for the crowd the show is marketed towards. The cops admit there is a course for Jesse to follow but is too fake to pretend he left the course. Obviously the neighbor hood was abandoned and good reason for using it. The pedestrians were staged. Sounds effects were not good either. I could have driven better but it's his show so let him fail.

    there are residential areas near the abandoned area. they have a perimeter that he should of stayed in. once he passes that line they call it "residential" because he is out of the original area

    When I was 17-19, my uncles, who were all around my ages outran the cops in a certain county in Georgia all the time. Its not hard, you just have to know roads and not look back. When we ran from the cops it usually because we were driving a car that we had fixed up just to drive around and tear shit up. When the cops got after us, it was real, we got caught, we went to jail. Plus, we never knew when we would have to run, or where we would be. This is bullshit and lame, spike might as well give us a show. We'd show people that you can outrun cops no problem, unless there is helicopter, then its pretty much done. So Jesse James is badass cause he can outrun cops on a set up course with all that safety shit? We were doing it for real before we could buy alcohol. So who's the real outlaw?

    alright, first of all any racer, any real racer would have handled that little stop at that carport alot better by hiding under the port. second that golf course thingie was completely gay because that golf cart had noone in it and that guy that was on the side was way off the side walk no where near getting hit. third when you get pitted you need to throw the wheel either to the left or the right depending on which corner panel you get clipped by and that will sling the car back forward. forth that suv stunt was so fuckin gay it was retarded. fifth there was only 2 pedestrian cars in the entire video... sixth again any real racer would have a cb in their car... that would keep a shit load off you... this show was completely lame and really reallllly disappointed me... ohh and jesse james is fuckin gay, he even sounded like he is the bitch in a relationship... tell you one thing, the ice run is going to be gay because its a bikee with spikes on the tires and pretty much a straight away... and it doesnt matter if that ice isnt completely frozen, it still way way strong enough to hold a bike... i will never watch this show again after this episode... who ever agrees with me should hit me up some time...

    I could watch Jesse James do just about anything. Put him in a car or a bike and it's probably going to be cool. Amazingly Spike destroyed a potentially decent show. The announcer trying to over dramatize everything, and all the gay fake shit is unwatchable. Why did Jesse let them put this crap out there. It's horrible.

    Cut out the fluff and fake bullshit. Lose the lame announcer and just let Jesse talk and it would be a hit. As it stands now, I'll never be back for another episode.

    Thanks for the good comments about why this show had problems. I watched it and it was so strange for the reasons you people point out but I didn't know much about these topics, just looking for a good show. Also didn't like the BS showboating by the helicopter in the residential set.

    Direct blood descendant of Jesse James? That's not proven it's only alleged, by Jesse no less.

    This show was horrible and fake which means Jesse is fake and a sell out. NO blood relative of Jesse James would be involved in this silly crap. Jesse's really running from the cops! Running with a crash helmet and help from real cops?

    How can you not love a man who makes the cops look dense? I know Spike is a "Man's Network" but it worked for me. I dont care if he did drive a piece of s**** Camaro or drove through abandoned neighborhoods. Bottom line he won, and made the fuzz work for their money. He had a point, too. Can't stay on the highway and play by the rules, a real test exercise would take it off road. Way to go, Jesse!! Hope Sandra got a real nice dinner on the Bacon.

    Awesome Job! And for the haters Jesse always slams t.v. bologna. He clearly threw these cops rite off with that off road tour. They didn't expect it one bit. and come on ! even though there out having fun. They have to keep the persona of keeping the public safe. I think the show, Jesse and the police did a great job. And they weren't chasing me or any of you. this is Jesse James!! Straight up hardcore don't give a flyin you know what! pedal to the medal bad a$$ mofo. And they caught em. Much respect. But not until he got his cash! hahaha I love it.

    ok i have ran from the cops myself in a 1986 pontiac 6000 with shot brakes and no power steering and i lasted 30 minutes, with no front tires, and doing no slower then 125 mph the whole time until they wrecked me out, so yeah seriously, if your in a car with a top speed of 170 why not do it for crying out loud, i know i wouldve, i pushed that 6000 to the limit and thats why its in the scrap yard now and not my front yard so mr big bad jesse james needs to grow some balls before he decides to "run from the cops" again
