Agreed.
Maybe "doughnut" follows under the "drift" umbrella?

If you are drifting and it turns into a doughnut I would say you lost it.

So, looks like fun, but have to ask... How much rubber was left
on the rear tires after that little gig?

I'd have to agree, unless a doughnut was what was intended.

Lets just say I spent 10 minutes in my friend's driveway rubbing my wheel wells with my hand to get all of the almost molten rubber off.

Oh, and an interesting fact, this is true with my car, and I'd assume it'd be the same with others: When the rear wheels burn, some of that smoke somehow works it's way through the car and exits where the seat belts are held. My cabin smelled of rubber for a week after!

Re: Up In Smoke

Doc, I still have my 255 Kumho's on the back and Americas's Tires called and said my 275's are here... they will go on the new rims from Rob once I get them.... The dang 255's seem to be lasting forever.... (could it be I dont drive them enough???)

Maybe I will have to 'turn' the 255's down when I get the Wavetrac.......
