I needed new tires, from the curb incident and the nail so I figure what the hey, I'm gonna give a huge smoke show. I video taped it with my crappy camera, and Louie was nice enough to host it for me, since I cant get my comcast FTP to work. If this does not work you need the right codec http://www.max-performance.net/vids.htm has a link to it. You may also need DirectX8, you can get that from www.download.com . Anyway, I coulda probably kept going with the burnout, but my right tire sprung a leak anyway after I was done. I had to drive home on a Donut, and will have to drive to the tire store on a donut as well.

Please be patient the vids about 7 Megs.

Dear lord.

WOW!!! How did you get ur wheels to spin without moving?

e-brake? That is one bad burnout

lol, running to the car....


nice burn out.

Me and my gf are both sitting here open-mouthed.

Sweet dude , sweet.......

What a coincidence your girlfriend was at my house open mouthed also

nice vid man good job....


burnt rubber stinks.....

HOLY SHYT dude, do that again!!! how the hell u do that???

It's not that tough... Put down some water (or better yet clorox for more smoke) to get the wheels spinning... Put your ebrake on and go. If you notice, his back wheels are also sorta off a little ledge, that will help too. Once it start spinning, there's no stoppin'! Great video!

That is very cool!

Also, very nice burnout indeed!

Yeah what he said!

next time eric posts a problem, my response will be a link to this thread

heck of a burn out!!!!

That was a pretty neat burnout though.

i can't believe i called IceY2K1's thoughts on oil changes lunacy. i can't think of another word to equivicate to the illustration of stupidity here.

Dude, that was the funniest sh*t!!!!!

NICE BURN!

Mike

awesome vid

Ok, I've tried everything to try to get this video, but max-performnce.net does not seem to exist. I really wanna see this video, please help!

Nice burnout! I think you should have probably wait and enter a burnout contest to do this. So you could win something for this.

Opening scene with maxima, but no movement throughout entire video... sound only?

hmmm... maybe I am in need of a different codec / player

Think he regretted having his windows open? <cough cough>

As much as I'd like to, I'm not going to reduce this thread to arguments and name calling. If I wanted that I would go to off-topic.net. So please keep your smart comments to yourself.

I think he might have just meant his comment as a joke

Anyways awesome burnout buddy, when the time comes, aka when I buy new tires, I'll destroy my old ones with a little something like that

OK I think I figured out comcast.net. Anyway here is another link: http://mywebpages.comcast.net/ewong61/DSCF0003.AVI (you gotta have DirectX 8- get it from www.download.com if needed).

To do such a huge burnout isnt that hard. Choke the back wheels/put them over a ledge. Use ebrake- pull it up tight or the wheels will roll. Revver up, drop the clutch and modulate the gas so you dont over rev the motor. You can see my first 2 attempts failed because the car moved. With a little bit of water on the ground to break the traction it worked quite well. It also helps ALOT that I have a Quaife differential. That thing can do 50/50 power splits, with dark and consistent marks :-D

sweet jesus.. i mean.. SWEET jesus.

F-ing SiCK

Damn, that's one sweet burnout. You gotta get a still for your sig of the near-last moment of the vid with the smoke drifting backwards off your tires... would be cool.

Mike

Great F-ing video dude! I want to see you do that in the staging lane at Cap raceway!

my player never plays avi's for some reason

nevermind, it works now. thats one sweet stick.

man..... deng...... man....... id unno.... shieeeeeez.... mann.......

Sweet burnout dude. Next time roll up your windows and turn the fan on recirc. That burnt rubber cloud ain't good for tha lungs.

I am intrigued as to why some people are asking how you did that.

Has anyone ever seen a 2nd gear burnout? I'll be making one shortly.

WOW!!!!!!!!!!

nice!
