but if you guys ever go to the track and want to prolong the life of your slicks rotate them after every pass. It really saves the tires. Another thing...long burnouts do NOT tear up the tires. Your only hydroplaning. You tear your tires up when you sit in the waterbox and spin them. After about a half second or so the spot they are sitting on is dry and getting hot. Plus it already has the rubber you just laid down tearing up the rubber that's still on the tire. Use some of these tips next time you go to the track.
