And have had ten years of driving.

And I have never done a burnout?

I asked that question tonight, on the heels of being told to !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! and figured it would be a good time to learn a new skill to augment that love. Like. Some sutra dragon level shit.

And holy shit it's like that time I got to play with an AK-47 and a banana clip full of cheap ammo. Utterly useless. Totally thrilling. Quite addicting. Probably illegal.

So. Behold. Burnout number one. Ever.

More throttle and brake control required. Are you supposed to modulate the brakes to keep the fronts locked up?

Went back for a second pass. Not nearly as impressive IMO.

But learn some things. Do not burnout on any sort of incline. Do not do so near tall yellow things. Tires have a magical temperature that makes smoke. Shit was so scientific.

Also, I now know the PO was NOT lying about Posi.

so. My gift to you. 400 poorly tuned cubic inches making smoke signals.

I can't get over how awesome that license plate is.

God, I love that car. Never thought I'd love a car made after 1974, But I do now

This just reminded me I need to make a video of me doing a burnout in the van. Because why the fuck not.

Also, MORE POWER. Unless you had the gas pedal floored in which case those 400 cubic inches are very poorly tuned.

You've owned that for more than a week and you have never lit up the tires?

I remember my first burnout. And, as with all great burnouts, it was not in a car I owned.

Opponaut Laird Andy is the same way. He's own a buuunch of cars in I believe 13 years or so

You need a car you're not afraid to break for burnouts. When I was 16-17 I bought a 86 cutlass as a parts car but all I needed was interior. We used to drop the beast into R get rolling and slam it into drive and lay tracks.

Love the car, dude. Looks awesome. I don't think I've ever seen a cooler license plate.

I will never forget my first burnout. Was not nearly as cool as this one, though.

That looks like a WI plate. Are you in Wisconsin? (If yes, have I asked you this before?)

What year is the 'Bu? I agree with other's for a lack of love of the malaise, but I do love 80's G bodies and all F-bodies except for the 4th gen, which is strange because they used to be my favorite.
