I would have if I were them. That way when I got out and the spectators starting tossing rocks and stones, I'd be a little less likely to sustain injury.

There was an s-10 extreme at the track last night that ran a BEST of 19.5@69mph
It got beaten by everything from a stock saturn to a 4 wheeler ATV.

Not trying to flame anyone, i just thought it was funny. He was running 20s at first, but then his girlfriend got out and he was able to break into the 19s.</font>

LMAO! Make it stop...too...many...jokes...going...to...overload. Dontcha hate it when a guy sets himself up so bad that there are just TOO jokes that come to mind? Anyway, I kind of feel bad for the guy. I bet he had the air conditioner off too. HAHA. I, no doubt, could top that in my mom's '01 V6 Camry. I beat my friend's '99 V6 Mustang in it. HAHAHA...

I guess you're right. Doing a burnout and warming up my tires was all for personal gratification and showing off. Besides, I like cleaning off the rubber build-up on the fenderwells. My 3 tenths improvement in 60' times (between burnout and no burnout) must simply be because the engine was happy about winding up during the burnout and was just showing it's appreciation by going faster during the first 60' of the run.

True, if you over-do the burnout it will turn street tires into grease. But who said anything about overdoing it? My Goodyears liked more burnout than do the Michelin Pilots, but they are not good at all without one. I'm also assuming that we are talking about at a normal sanctioned drag strip. I generally don't do burnouts on the street.</font>

True, some tires like the burnouts more than others. The stock RSAs didn't like smokey burnouts at the track, just enough to get a lil bit of smoke to roll off, purely for cleaning purposes. But now the new Nittos, they like ya to burn em for a good while. Warmin' these babies up usually results in 1.9-2.0 60 fts.

Geez guys, that showing off to girls thing was a joke! I've never done it actually. The one time I remember girls being around and I did a burnout (Not a smokey one, really just a lil chirp) they thought it was waaaaaaaay juvenile. And I didn't even mean to do it. LOL. Oh well.

RedRT you ever go to the real street drags at GLD? Some guys have been pushing people to go to it. If you've gone did you like it or are you not into that kind of stuff. I think your gonna want to pass on that rematch now, eventualy you'll see why.

Didn't know how over used that was, just threw it in there after checking out petes link to the chicago land R/T club. I don't care who puts what on plates, personaly I wouldn't put somehting "contravisial" on mine, but if it was me I'd make sure I can back it up
