Burnouts: Generally Pointless, Always Fun

By John Coyle

When you’re heating up the rubber before a sprint down the 1/4 mile, burnouts serve a practical purpose. But as we all know, most of the time, they’re just for done for fun—and that’s great. I mean, what isn’t fun about making a ton of smoke and noise? As you can imagine, everyone here at CarDomain is staunch supporter of gratuitous burnouts, so much so that we have a video category specifically dedicated to them. That said, this clip of a little Starlet roasting off the rubber features the best smoke session I’ve seen in a long, long time. That dude sure is going for it! What’s the coolest burnout you’ve seen lately?

Best burnout I’ve seen lately? Hmm.

My mom + SRT8 Charger test drive = hilarious smoke session

Sadly my mom burns ‘em better than I do

burnouts suck. little cars doing it is funny at first, until facts are revealed. Imagine making the goal: traction. Now that would be interesting, how bout a video section for that. No, no. that would be reality of stupidity getting fixed. Can’t have that.Can’t have reality. Make them as dumb as possible, call it a drifter, another loser in real life, and then jack up prices ride the market and fill tv screens with smoke. Brilliant.Extinct the best, and glorify the rest. That ought to be a bumper sticker for CARS.

I saw an eclipse with two turbo engines and both engines when punt in drive would go the opposite way. The most smoke i’ve ever seen.
