Morning Symphony: A Fine Collection Of Skids From Gazzanats – How Long Can You Keep The Rubber Burning?

Have you ever just wanted to stop everything that you were doing and just scream as loud as you possibly can, for as long as you possibly can, in the hopes that once you are done you will feel much better? That’s pretty much the premise of an Australian “skid”, another great way to punish tires from our friends down under. The premise is simple: get the rear tires spinning and start moving forward. Maintain this rolling burnout without using brakes and without crashing or spinning out for as long as you can or until the rears finally regain traction. If you do it right there will be a steady stream of celebratory tire smoke pouring from your rear wheel wells, triple-digit speeds, and a pair of tire tracks that announce plainly for everyone to see: “He went that-a-way!” There’s donuts, there’s burnouts, and then there is coaxing your hot rod into doing an impression of the Space Shuttle at liftoff. We dig it…a lot.
