Default Paging Mr Mojo

At work I now have the ability to make very large photo-quality prints. I just happen to have a 5 megapixel SLR, so... :reddevil ...I figure I'll reach out to the leading authority and ask the following question:

What makes the most tire smoke? Water, bleach, dry, or something else I haven't heard of?

(other experts are encouraged to chime in too)

Soft tire compound and high RPM:D

I get the same amount of smoke on dry ground and in the water box.

Here's an example:

Water... bleach.... don't waste your time.

Do it on dry! Get a Hurst roll-control line lock... like me!

But, this pic is before the line lock.....

Dry it is, then. Line lock would be too much temptation for me to resist, probably wind up in the ol' graybar hotel.

Thanks all, I'll post if I get any good shots or break anything interesting.
