Default Re: Burnout?

My right foot is my rev limiter in the water ! ....I rarely look at the tach ,but still keep the revs within 1-200 rpm., just tuned into the sound of the motor I guess. ......... Most of the time when a car turns in the water its because the concrete in the burnout box is so wornout that one tire may be in a ditch and the other on a flat surface. ....It takes a severely crooked rear,or an abnormally high amount of preload to turn a car in the water.........My car is usually straight as an arrow ,except for two tracks Maple Grove and Cecil Co. both left lanes. ........the water box guys usually do a good job of keeping you out of the ruts,but I still occasionally get a little sideways.......When that happens ,I just turn the wheel,stand on it ,and provide a "photo oppertunity"! LOL. .....Tom
