Will Cooksey's (Corvette Plant pres) burnout. Heard him tell the story while I was at the Corvette museum's 15th anniversary.

Some days you just need to smoke them good for the blood pressure until it's time to get new rear tires
I say it's worth it

I used to do em in my beater 68 Cutlass that had 2.73 gears w/o Posi and a mix-matched 350 chevy I built for $500. I certainly hope a Z06 can do a burnout
Although it was kinda neat to see a Z06 get abused, it wasn't too impressive to see that a Z06 could actually do a burnout. Were we uncertain whether or not it was capable of such a feat?
A burnout where you're not suppose to do one is fun. A burnout in a sleeper muscle car is kinda fun. Laying down 100ft of rubber while getting sideways is even fun. But seeing a boxed in Z06 do a burnout is only neat because he damaged it.
Now this is kinda neat
Has a lil showmanship to it.
