Needless to say, no burnouts were achieved that day.

It actually makes for a very poor launch...
Well that sucks.

I guess it's just as well since we have no way of checking to see if the ATF is burnt from doing that...

I was able to lay wheels pretty nicely just flooring with the traction control off tho
