Title: POST YOUR BURNOUT SHOTS...of your street car
Post by: rick m on January 27, 2008, 08:57:10 am
In April of 1997 I entered my own 67 in the Phoenix Bug-O-Rama first burnout contest.  I made the mistake of going first and there were no other show ups to participate.  I had my 2110 frying the tires in 2nd gear until I drove out of the cloud of smoke I created.

Six weeks later I drove this same car aong with Don Bulitta (and his 66) on the 1997 BERG CRUISE. I did it on the same tires, through 109 degree temps in the Nevada desert on the way to Salt Lake City to meet up with Art Thraen and a few others joining us.

Post your burnout shots of your street car doing a burnout.  Let's see what everyone's got!

Here is a link to my 67 Bug doing a burnout.  Ocean Street Video taped it 10 years ago and it has been on their site since.

www.oceanstreetvideo.com/bbrnmed.mpg

The second video clip is me going a burnout in the BLUE NEW BEETLE at the spring Phoenix Bug-O-Rama of 1998.  We hosted the NEW BEETLE Tour that year and were allowed to test drive the NEW BEETLES.  I proceeded to line up against a fellow VW enthusiast, do a massive burnout and then put a hole shot on him and beat him.  He was 20 years younger and assured me he was going to beat me.  You never forget some things.  Hope you enjoy both videos.

www.oceanstreetvideo.com/nwbrnmed.mpg

If for some reason these links do not work on this site,  go to www.oceanstreetvideo.com and go to their download section and look for the internet burnout contest.  My two videos are the last two in that section.  The link for the downloads is at the very bottom of the home page for Ocean Street Videos, and is in brackets.  Click on it and follow it to the Internet Burnout Contest information.

Your never too old to have fun with a BUG.

I'm running a standard Diff and always have been and I had the same issues.  I always have a spotter on track letting me know if both are spinning.  if not, then dumping the clutch a 2nd time can get it going.    I always make sure my wheels are in the water and get your crew to ask the track crew to spray a little more down on the wheel that is harder to spin up.   
With my SA box, I could almost always get the right wheel to spin but the left was hit and miss.   Since going IRS, it appears to be the other way.  Left seems to favour spinning more than right.   
I think really the solution is an LSD... Which is firmly on my wish list.
