Ages ago, whilst Men & Motors was on freeview, I saw a program pretty late at night and I think it was called "The Getaway" or maybe just "Getaway". The idea of the program was there were 3 stunt drivers and a team of plice officers, the stunt drivers had to perform a felony and then last a certain amount of time before getting through a specific checkpoint to win. The police meanwhile had to shut them down. I watched it for about half an hour and thought it was a great concept however I've never seen or heard anything about it since. I was wondering if anyone here knows what I'm on about, or even knows the real name of the show as it was more than a year ago when I saw it and I only remembered it due to a conversation at a pub on Saturday.
Thanks for your time!

I know that there is a russian tv show that is doing exactly that.

Hmm...interesting. The one I saw though was American, I suppose it could've been a pilot show that never got a regular slot in the TV listings...however it's much more interesting than 90% of the "World's wildest police chases" type of TV show and they seem to get on TV often enough.
