HAHA, nah the guys that are running it are responsible and wont take any shite from idiots, i think it is to prove a point that burnouts can be done responsibly and without injury or d|ckheads ruining it, there is no tolerance to people being complete *******

Burnouts are so over rated.

Anyone in a POS can do one!

Please!

Any LSD veh can spin them up and destroy tyres.

I agree with above, any POS can do one. By doing a burnout doesn't mean you have a tough or powerfull car!!

its not always about having a tough or powerful car tho, sometimes its just fun to spin the wheels, personal enjoyment. just like having a w a n k dosent make you a man, but sometimes its fun to do it!

I think you are missing the difference between a POS N/A VL with a moo-cow exhaust note flailing its *** around on a skid pad, and a car driven by someone who can control the speed, direction and radius of each rotation, use up the entire pad and best present their vehicle to the crowd.

Not that that's the point. The point is, skids are fun. And we want to do them.
