There are some things that just need to happen and getting the Guinness record for most simultaneous burnouts back on American shores is one of them. We were pointed to this news by Bret Kepner and he was right that we’d be interested in supporting Mid-South Dragway in their quest to get more than 119 cars completing burnouts at the same time to wrest the current record, which was set last year, away from Saudi Arabia. I mean, c’amon people. This has got to get fixed and you can help!

How? Show up at Mid-South Dragway on June 10th and have a spare set of tires that you can burn to the cords. Listen, if you need to be there in your mom’s mini-van, do it. This is a certified Guinness attempt and the idea here is letting the world know who’s boss in the realm of tire destruction. Make it happen!

Here’s the full story from Mid-South Dragway – Let’ Get The Record Back!

Wanna be a part of history? Lynne and Greg Ryan, owners of Mid-South Dragway in Dyersburg, Tennessee, have recently been cleared by Guinness World Records officials for an attempt at the most simultaneous burnouts. The little eighth-mile on the eastern bank of the Mississippi River in the “five-state” corner of Tennessee bordered by Missouri, Arkansas, Illinois and Kentucky will be the site of the attempt on Sunday, June 10, 2018, from 9:00 AM to 1:00 PM.

The current Guinness-certified record of cars conducting burnouts at once is 119, a record set in Saudi Arabia in 2017. Anybody with any automobile can be a part of the record attempt. Lynne and Greg only ask each entrant to break their own wheel chocks for safety.

Each entrant will get free racing for the rest of the day at the track. Spectators not with participants will be charged $5 at the gate. Gates open at 9:00 AM for participants and 11:30 AM for spectators. The Ryans hope to fire off the World’s Largest Simultaneous Car Tyre Burnout, (the official Guinness title), at Noon. Concession stands will be open.

Contact Mid-South Dragway via their FaceBook page at https://www.facebook.com/MidSouthDragway/ to let them know you want to be a part of it so they can keep an accurate count of entries. Contestants can also contact Lynne Ryan directly at 708-268-0554. It should also be noted the Ryans are looking for individuals or companies to sponsor the event. The program could end up delivering global coverage!
