Man arrested after chase a former NASCAR driver




The Corvette driver who led authorities on a high-speed chase Monday that started in Orange County and ended in University City, and at times reached speeds of 130 mph, is a former NASCAR-licensed driver, authorities said Tuesday.


Quote from the article:

Deputies first tried to pull Neal over for a minor traffic violation around 3 a.m. on Avenida Pico in San Clemente, said Orange County sheriff’s Lt. Mike Jansen.

But Neal took off and headed south on Interstate 5. Deputies chased him to the Border Patrol checkpoint and then turned it over to California Highway Patrol officers, who followed him from I-5 to I-805 until his car came to a stop just before 3:30 a.m., Jansen said.
