If you look online, esp Limewire, you can find a 3 minute 3-rotor burnout.. pretty cool.

Yeah, I think racing beat or some other company built the car... at least thats what I remember reading... there was a thread about it a long time ago

If the guy driving it really paid for the car, he was waaaaaay too excited about killing his nice 20b

The vid with the engine blowing up is NOT a 20b! I have seen the vid and clearly was not a 20b.

the longest burn out is as long as you want it, or as long as your tires will hold out. Just hold the brakes while spinning the tires, power brake as long as you want, not really a challenge? Check outt the video of Tim Allen vs Jay Leno burn out contest Tim shows Jay wassup, it is funny too.

Check it out on tamparacing.com video post in the forums.

If that's the Australian one (where they not only burn out, but get to swing around and stuff) I read that that was actually the clutch exploding, and taking the exhaust and fuel lines with it. Then maybe the engine because it suddenly unloaded and revved to infinity...
Makes me glad that the clutch is in FRONT of my feet on '7s...

Oh, and I haven't done much in the way of a long *length* burnout, but I once did donuts for about a minute or so shortly after putting an LSD in the car!
