Are burnouts dead? I know there are a lot of us that said we are going to send a vid in, myself included. But there has to be those who did. I just moved about two months ago and my car has lived in the garage under a cover and surrounded by boxes. I promiss, I will get it back into the sun light soon and send in a vid.

Re: Burnouts R.I.P.?
Nothing wrong with the pegleg. Keeps the car straight during the burnout. Just remember to get the videographer on the correct side of the car! (Chuckling to myself at the idea of a pegleg burnout from the non-burnout side)

No video, just the aftermath pictures.
SRI Performance cruise night has a burnout contest. I won...wish some one had a video. That is one continues burnout the length of the building, plus some. They will have a burnout contest at every cruise night for those of you near Mooresville NC. Third Thursday of every month, 5-9 PM2 Photos

But I've got an even better excuse. Good tires cost a lot (^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^) and I've got an even better excuse than that. Since I don't want to burn the tires off, I don't know how to do a burnout. Red's road course tires are so good, when you dump the clutch, they just grip and GO.
Some of the collective "us" won't even remember when young Jeff Gordon won his very first NASCRAP race. He tried, but he didn't know how to a burnout himself. Hendrick sent him to burnout school and Jeff was REAL good at it the next race he won, which was soon after. It's a training issue, and not caring at all about the tires.Charter member of the Turd Nuggets

I don't think my truck could.
the little g80 diff grumbles the back end.
4th gear buries at 3500 or so... I let it go another thousand before fifth.
at 130 something, I don't want to second guess tires.
I stop there because the rating of "S" is overspun already at that point.
I see burnouts and assume no top speed for more than a mile...
still like to see them.
