You must have some very sticky tires to have such good traction with that strong sounding V8 engine.
Sorry to say my son was laughing at your excitement over actually laying a patch.

We couldn't measure how long the twin patches I laid today all the way thru 1st gear on a deserted stretch of highway. I really do need a new set of stickier tires to replace these pitifull stock Goodyears.
All smoke and no go. :(
I just can't control my lead foot.

Um, just one comment. Normally, when someone says "Let' er rip!", it doesn't mean "Turn off the car and talk to the cameraman..."

Other than that, perty dang cool...

Well speaking as one who has tried the same thing with his car( slowrora that is), it doens't seem to break loose very easily. I tired it a few times and it was nothing to wrote home about. My Malibu on the other hand can break loose alot easier, ( not that it is a good thing to be able to break loose that easy).

I gave Jseabert a burnout show on an old country road yesterday Lilpooky was his passenger, I had his two brothers. Josh and Kim ate 30' of smoke as they drove through it. I think I need better tires.
