    Thumbs up Burnout video

    This video way hyperlinked off the FFR forum, it takes a while to load but is worth the wait. If you see this car for sale my first thought would be not to buy it, the term "don't be gentle on the rental" comes to mind.

    During the first set of burnouts it looked like he had the brakes on (check the brake lights) I wonder if he had the rear brake master cylinder disconnected from the brake pedal (note the lack of front wheel rotation). The guy must have lots of money for tires and gear, or no common sense maybe both....

    [strike]Probably just a line lock.[/strike]

    Edit: Never mind...realized the brake lights won't stay on with a line lock.

    It does look like he may have just cranked a lot of front bias in the brakes. I couldn't imagine doing anything like that in my car.
