also before you do the burnout, instead of dumping the clutch and smashing the throttle. preload the clutch so theres less stress on the axles.

Once you have the burnout started turn the wheel from left to right and then right to left repeatedly, You will get WAY more smoke. PS your car was not designed to do burnouts, you will damage more then just your tranaxel doing it. Have fun when your drop the Dif pin or blow apart your LSD unit.

IMO yes. just depends how frequently. if it's once then probably not. but it's often then yes. besides, why take the chance. just get rid of the tires and be done with them.

How is this thread still semi-serious? Any other day this would have been filled with haters by now. Weird.
