I WISHED my truck hooked! That's no powerbraking, that's just going from idle-WOT and holding it to the floor. Also, this is on a road that has a recent "slurry seal", which basically means, it's as gritty as about 80 grit sandpaper!

Hahaha, if you actually look to the left, on the STRAIGHTER burnout, that actually WAS a motorcycle. A neighbor thought he'd be tough and do a burnout in front of my house with his older GSX-R. My one-wheel-wonder was WAY better/longer than his, hahaha

haha, peg legs are where its at haha!! there is this one part of town on the way to school that all the kids show off on. there is a stop sign right before a rather steep hill. they do massive burnouts all the way up it going like 5 mph for 300 feet. the road there looks like a race track. i have a picture somewhere of my volvo sideways going up the hill with a smoke clowd fallowing it. it looks wicked!!

I'm glad I don't live there. I'd call the cops on you.



Why don't you go out to the country for stuff like that.

How can we trust that your truck did that? Where are the action shots???

peg leg burnouts are cheating because the tire that looses traction will start spinning faster than a posi/locker burnout. with that said, my 77 gmc will leave two 12.50" wide marks that long. And if you did that in front my house Id be waiting for you to drive by again!

my truck will spin both tires from a stand still, but i dont think i have a posi or a locker because when the rearend is up in the air the tires spin in opposite directions, does anybody know why this is?

you have to drive the driveshaft to have both tires spin in the same direction, otherwise they rotate opposite with a lim-slip.....i think

Hey Dude you could have a gov lock unit they will turn opposite directions the way you describe. But a clutch or cone type limited slip will turn the same way. Reading all this talk about peg leg burnouts makes me think back to when my youngest brother had a peg leg monte carlo with a 400 in it. He just burned the heck out his right rear tire until he burned the cross pin in half and it locked up the axle while going down the street. Needless to say he was pretty embarassed. So just a word of caution to all of you doing the one wheel thing, your headed in the same direction cause take it from someone who really knows, that is the worst thing to do to a diff, since all of your power has to go through those 2 little spider gears spinning on the cross pin. Just thought you might like to know.
