I wish I had some pics, my friend used to live up a very steep cement driveway and I would smoke my tires off up the whole hill about 100ft.

if i get bored im gonna measure them...it could have been an endless burnout but i let off the brake when power braking....then i feathered the gas till it quit spinning....
one of these days before the new tires go on im gonna take a pic while im doing the burnout...

the best part of having new tires is that u get control....

my tires are always bald as crap....
and it has uneven wear..... so it pulls my car left and right

=P

Sadly these are not mine. I took the picture anyways because it was funny. This is all on a blind corner on a mountain. If you squint you can see my car parked in the back.
