:P almost forgot the burnout in high school where me and a friend both did burnouts side by side....both had open diffs. and both got them to lock up an pull posi.....the cloud was big enough to hide the gym and was so thick that the guy taking pictures was 5 feet behind the other car and couldn't even see the tail lights of it.... needless to say we both had to go buy tires the next day....

These were taken at the Car Craft Summer Cruise, back in 96 or 97. The first video was my very first one...took me a few seconds to find the "sweet" spot. I was throttling in/out of the throttle to make the crowd happy...ended up winning that round (and nuking my posi).

In the second round, obviously my posi quit, but I had a better run. I ended up blowing the chord off the tire (causing pretty good body damage), then the tire popped from melting on the hot steel plate. I won the round, but was DQ'd because I blew a tire...you are only allowed one pair of tires for the whole competition. Sucks, cause the tires were fairly new too. Ended up finding a used set of tires mounted on steel wheels at the swap meet...changed out the tires/wheels, and drove home later that evening.

That was a fun weekend, expensive, but worth it.
