I did something similar, went into a parking lot and smoked the tires on 3 consecutive burn outs of 63, 63 and 64 feet.

The evidence was there for months. It's great to be 16 (mentally).

I did something similar to finish off the Contis when my new tires were in. Only problem was that in my exhuberance, I unknowingly wore through to the belts and had to flat-bed it to the tire store when one wheel was sitting on the ground the next morning.

Yes it was a very fast sale .... Our family wanted a sports car for the summer so we got rid of the bentley and got a f430. We actually sold the car to someone in Russia.... They said it was to be used by the government. And told us to watch for it on tv!!!!
