(Words and photos by Doug Gregory) –\u00a0<\/strong><\/em>Let there be burnt offerings to Vulcan\u2026..the god of tire smoke.\u00a0 Had a LOT of good burnout photos for half the cars and not so much the other half.\u00a0 Many of these cars do not have a traction problem with only a little cleaning of the tire so a big, nasty, massive-plume burnout isn\u2019t needed and is just more wear and tear on the vehicle.\u00a0 It is a show though and we were there to bring that show to you.<\/p>\n

First up to the plate is the Toxic Falcon.\u00a0 I do not recall it doing monster burnouts last year, but this thing had the starting line area fogged up.\u00a0 The Tin Man Chevy II never disappoints as the smoke always seems to cling on the Nova\u2019s flanks.\u00a0 Josh Embry has a new mill in his \u201964 Malibu and he hazed the tires past the starting line several times.\u00a0 Adam Lowhorn, despite an uncooperative clutch, managed some photogenic\u00a0 heating of the hides.\u00a0 Even Aaron Riley\u2019s Falconstein, last year\u2019s series points champion, got in on the action and ruthlessly abused the tires before nearly every pass.<\/p>\n

Enjoy the photos.<\/p>\n
