    Never got one on film till today. I was out by myself, propped up a camera..sat and listened for cars, finally, a quiet moment! I hit "record" and ran to the car, did the burnout, saw a car coming, had to stop and when I ran to grab the camera I realized the people coming down couldn't see anything, and I couldn't really either lol! Jumped back in an high tailed it back home. spent an hour and a half lookin for a spot, after driving for about 30 minutes lookin for a spot I passed a sheriff..so I thought great..Now i gotta drive that much further (at this point im long lost as to where im even at) then after 20 minutes.. low and behold, I pass another sheriff..needless to say, it took an hour and a half, but I got my video I've always wanted :dancing: :burnout:enjoyyyy (y)

    Those tires smoke really good. Interesting things with the lights on the car.

    Very nice. I need to do that too. Just for me. I don't think mine smokes that much. But then it's not a 347 either. Good for you

    Nice smoke show.

    Got a good one myself with New falkens and New size 17 boots in my wifes Honda Accord LX. Stupid tiny japanese cars.

    -edit: realized my early morning tired sarcasm was coming through as not-nice instead.
