I got asked acouple times thus my answer. I have never done one burn out in Nightfall. And i dont plan on it ever. Maybe at a car show with some crap beater rims/tires NEVER on my 20 RS rims (LEGALY MIND YOU)

Had a kid in an old beat up Toyota pick up in front of me in a drive through ask me to do it - I leaned out the window and asked if he planned on paying for new tires. He said "Uh, no - never mind" then burned out as he left the drive through... Dumba$$... Then the lady at the drive through window says "Thanks for starting that" WTF? I started it just by owning a nice car????

2010 SSRS · 08-13-2011, 11:04 AM

Depends which Camaro I'm driving, all three will light em right up.

mikeyroche · 08-13-2011, 11:06 AM

I don't.... I say no... First off, those tires are not cheap.. And I drive it for my enjoyment, not them.

kinda funny how you get blaimed for it huh?

xXSilencerXx · 08-13-2011, 11:31 AM

I tell em no, tires are too expensive. Which is just an excuse since I'll readily light em up on my own in a closed course. haha I just don't like people asking me to do it.

SSRick · 08-13-2011, 12:01 PM

Wow, you guys are NO FUN! I like to think I have the BLESSED "responsibility" to "light 'em up" when requested or actually anytime!

We own the current version of an American Classic. It's iconic. It's beloved. It's COOL!

I don't think of it as showing off, but celebrating!
