YES!

I think I was in the tunnel when you or someone else did that. the head wind took it right back and thru and I couldn't see a thing for what seemed a long time.

Interesting. Where your eyes burning? Did it affect your RT?

Looking for a edge

I saw the smoke coming and said to myself Holy $hi!!! My finger was on the window button but time just seemed to go into a slow motion and continued

Stop putting bleach under the rear tires, we all know your car can't spin tires.

Thats great for a burnout contest. Now if you were doing a burnout to run I would say you have burned out enough for you, the other car and 2 cars behind you!

Great pic 4D

I'll be different.... Are you using ET Streets? Most of my burnouts are pretty close to that and I don't hold it long at all (well, you might have held it a bit long

) . I just think these tires smoke a ton. They never seem to wear out either.

Nah, no such thing as too much of a burnout!

Good job Jay but needs more smoke.

It was enough of a burnout to win the event, so I guess it was just right.

Burnouts

Paul Jr in the Killer Red Vette always does heavy burnouts. 60' times on a good track are 1.35 to 1.39 and very consistent. We usually do 200 to 250 passes a year and we do buy a new pair of Hoosiers each year. We do not notice a loss of effectiveness through the year.
