I am hoping to be good enough someday to spin around at 1/2 track.

Where are you supposed to practice then?

 

[blakbearddelite]

I did about five seconds of a burn-out in reverse one time. I stomped the pedal and then I saw the staging guy giving me the 'cut' sign. I soon realized I was in reverse, oops!

 

[Chester Copperpot]

Sweet jesus.

And somehow my car still runs.

 

[VenomInside]

That is why I practice launching in my driveway.

That's because you need mo' sticky tires!

There is a plan for that this year! I am going to a 425/95/16 DR.

Reminds me of a buddy of mine. When he was younger he was a bit crazy. Went to GLD in his LS1 Camaro. He gets out of the car and pounds a 40. Gets back in and goes to make a pass. Backs into the water box and never takes it out of reverse.

He is doing his burnout in reverse like a BOSS. All while the "crew" behind him were yelling and screaming............lol Funny as hell.

Why not go with something bigger?

I could only imagine!

I might need something bigger to plant all of the power I am making.

 

[Shells_04]

Poor guy. At least he didn't crash into the wall

 

[Donnie]

I honest thought dude was trolling 'til he reamed his shit into the wall...

I try and get several practice wheel hop and axle breaking sessions every week for this very reason.

The track is where we are supposed to practice. I would rather see him do that at the track then on the street. Think about it, how close do people stand to the cars on the street, at the line and at the big end? Granted he needs advice on how to drive at the track but at least hes out there doing it instead of bench racing like I see a lot of shit talkers doing at the track.

 

[Burtonrider10022]

You can't safely practice putting your car into first gear on the street? That guy should have been, IMO, a little more familiar with the car before he was driving it that hard.

I guess you're right about the track part, I should have said "Why you should practice a LITTLE before driving a V8 sports car beyond your abilities."

The 7 second Ring King vid reminded me of my first time on a wet track at Autobahn: I spun on my first lap in the first corner out of pit lane. Very humbling...
