Donuts or Burn Outs?

[young'n'poor]

Donuts in a snowy parking lot are part of growing up anywhere in the Midwest. I'm always surprised at the amount of middle aged and older guys I catch screwing around in the snow when I leave work after fresh snow (I work second shift). Burnouts are fun too though. It's become customary for customers leaving to lay as big a path as they can at the exhaust shop near my house.

icy spinouts are for sissies. give me a real burnout (not a powerstand) anyday.

my buddy had a 70 Z/28 back when Z/28 meant something. a bunch of us would go to the K-Mart parking lot and play frisbee in the middle of the night. My Z-buddy liked spinning burnouts. crank the wheel, dump the clutch and start smoking the tires. he would spin a couple times and then he'd be going backwards with the wheels still smoking forwards, then he would start the whole process over again. one night he did one with a cop in the back corner of the parking lot. woops. the cop got out one of those little wheel things that they use to measure skids at accident scenes and started walking around in circles. wrote him up for unsafe start, with a notation "100 feet if circular skidmarks".

I could only do straight burnouts in my GTO. I remember one in particular... about 50 feet of rubber on the ground, a space of about 2 feet and another 25 feet of rubber, then a little space and anther 3 foot of rubber. I was so proud of that one, I should have taken a picture.

this was right in a neighborhood about a block from the grammer school. I should have been dragged out of the car and beaten and my car impounded and crushed.

I think 6:11 in the video was a split moment before folding over a stop sign. hahahaaa Man, straight up hooliganism. Do-nuts and beer! Love the little Renault 4cv getting in on the action. That big ol' flatbed was bitchin', although I was fearing for the front of the building....

What about "brodies"?

[Jungle Jalopy]

...oh, and "ski-jogging".

Since I was in to drag racing, it's a straight line burnout for me. But only if there's money on the line. I'm not rich so I hate to break things.

I like sandy donuts!

Mmmmmmm Donuts...................until I got of my box and added some "curb topping". Cracked Steel Cragar, bent axle................. shit. was damn fun till the curb got in the way, though.

I like smokey ass burnouts!!! I also like gettin Pitched. I dare not say the D word that they made a sport out of. but rounding a turn and goosing it only to lay hard lock for a hundred feet is cool. specially when you gracefully return it to a normal driving position and maintain your mature like posture on the road.

That's why I always caveat:

"I’m pretty darn sure this old 8mm (video) film has appeared on here somewhere before..."

Trust me, it's hard to find original stuff to post 104 times a year!

I don't care how many times this is posted...I love it and was actually looking for this clip the other day!! Snow or no snow, these guys were gettin with it!! I can't imagine how much they were laughing their asses off that day and I'll bet they about wore that old film out watching it! Bet they would have never guessed that all these years later, there would be a pack of like minded folks still digging that video!!

i love when they re asphalt a parking lot and cover it in sand.

[tfeverfred]

"Peel out. I just love it when guys peel out."

Straight line for me. Going in a circle reminds me of those damn drifters. Damn hooligans in thier ricer rigs. There outta be a law.

[40FordGuy]

Another for donuts, or even better figure 8's!

I think thats why the old walmart buildings all over the country sit empty after the build a "super" walmart a few miles away. So ppl have abandoned parking lots that will be there for decades to be a hood in the snow

[notrod13]

i like to make a bakes dozen or two for sure .... burnouts just tear up your tires....
