Alright since you all wanted more, heres more. I'm almost embarrassed to post these, cause they arent great. but whatever. start excuses in 3...2...1.... there was a HUGE thunderstorm i was being chased by on my way out to the road i did this at. I had no more than 5-10 minutes before the downpour, and sure enough...it came. So I had no chance to do more than one video of each thing. Second excuse... the traffic was WAY heavier than the other night, so I had to move quick and work between cars lol.

Ok enough excuses... here they are.


Per RubberFrog's request, the peel outs were up first. No brake. One foot from the brake to the gas. As soon as the rpms hit 5500, I let off so it wouldnt hit the rev limiter. edit: sorry for the camera placement fail

For those that werent impressed with the smoke before, heres some smoke for ya. The winds were constant at 20 mph. Unlike the other day where I had a chance to get used to it, this was a one time shot. Again, I didnt wanna hit the rev limiter so I backed off each time it got too high. Unfortunately I backed off too much, and the rpms dropped a bunch.

This video is better muted...trust me.

and finally, on the way back i just recorded a WOT gettin on the highway. 20 mph headwind going this direction (as is evident by the drop in acceleration at higher speed). 85 and overcast.

And thats enough torture on the drivetrain, so thats probably the last you're gonna see of these tires unless someone can convince me otherwise.

Much better than last time. I think that if you still have tread on the tires you should smoke them some more before you put your new ones on

I gotta leave the new owner with SOME rubber lol. The rears match the fronts nicely now actually. Im more concerned with the strain on the drivetrain than i am the tires to be honest

I understand leaving some rubber on if you are selling them.

Now you are making me want to make a burnout vid.

These videos are sweet. I especially like the acceleration video. That truck moves really good.
