Entered "BURN-OUT" contest-anyone know how?

HA, HA! i think we all do but i want to know if anyone has a technique that makes more smoke than usual. I entered a Burn out contest in Va Beach in a couple of weeks (yeah baby). If anyone has any input on how to get the best smoke possible i'd appreciate it. I plan to keep the Nitto Dr's on but can change to F1's (both already have some wear on them). They block the front tires for this so brakes aren't an issue. The most SMOKE wins! RPM's? OD position? Bring it on....

Splash a little bleach on the tires before you go out there. Put it in a spray bottle and soke the tires down.

...and spray PAM on the inside of your wheel wells. You'll have about 1" of stuck rubber in there without it ...works great on grills as well

Wipe down the treads with some 10W40. I did that a few years ago with a four banger Isuzu Pup and smoked the crap out of the tires. My friends and I almost pissed ourselves watching that truck completely bake the tires. Good times.

Just remember speed equals smoke........the hotter they are the smokier they become. You should easily get into 3rd gear......take it out of O/D and spin em up to 90mph or so

Oh and bleech works great too.

HI!

heh.. heres the burnout i did...
right click on link & select "save target as" for best results:

http://www.superlightning.com/webpic...outcontest.mov



this is all i got for the burnout:


i went to that carshow again last weekend & there was a lot of peer pressure from EVERYONE there for me to enter the burnout contest this year.. but i still remember scraping rubber out of my wheelwells for 2-3 hours!

the only reason i did the burnout was because they promised the winner "something nice". the "something nice" turned out to be a crappy trophy.
plus, i just had one of the tires repaired after putting a hole in it at the track (ran over a sharp rock) and wanted to see if it would hold air.. it didn't, so i got rid of them and bought some hoosiers.
