Use a 50/50 mix of diesel and toluene. I used it for years. Works like a champ.

i read about the soda thing while searching.

So what is the process of effectively using it?
Heat up tires, coat the tires and burn out?

cola is tacky but will not soften up the rubber like VHT which actually softens the tires.

make sure you get some Coke with the Rum, just dump the coke on the tires and burn out. Then chug the Rum while racing, and be sure to be smoking a Newport in between shifts. You will never lose with this tip

why is it orange soda? why can't it be sprite, cola, or root beer?

and I assume if its orange soda, it needs to not be sugar free
