Back on the road with the GT350. Pretty quiet sunday afternoon - the usual geezers in vettes putting around for no good reason. Ran into a coal roller at a light who started revving smoke at me. Dropped the clutch at almost 5K, watched the tach climb but barely moving - for a second I thought wtf, then looked in the rearview mirror and saw smoke - the tires were just spinning. Didn't pick up on the cams tho - still owe @Flaubert and @Mountain Bike Mike a proper burnout

My cycling nemeses coal rolling pickups are the fastest vehicles on the road, didn't you know that? ?
Seriously I think they just wanted to hear the motor, they were waving and smiling (unlike nj coal rolling goons)

@rick81721 Yay... Race car needs to be driven for what it was intended....
I’d like to request a trip to Florida and make a bunch of quarter mile passes

Wondered at first but looking at the previous video clip that stripe was already there. Don't think i spun the tires enough to leave visible rubber

How much to replace those tires? $350 per for the rear? So you just burned off $50? Not everyday ppl throw out money like that. I am impressed

hahahahahahahahahahahahahaaaaaaaaaaaa your cute, $350 for a pair of performance tires . . . . LMFAO.
closer to $350/tire for those guys (if not more, not sure what level of tire @rick81721 has on that sucker)

Didn't I say 350 per?
if you did thats not how i read it, i read it was 350/axle . . . .
and 350/tire is still the cheap side of good tires
