Hehe ive watched people drag at the track and shit but uhhh ive only see nepople in rwd cars warm up their tires b4 they go. Do fwd do that as well? is it a good idea? sorry for such a n00b ass question just curious.

Don't flame too hard please.

 

You will want to do a dry burnout with drag radials to clean them off.

PS. Cronic are you gonna get that thing to the track anytime soon?

 

heating up street tires=pointless
heating up slicks=good videos

 

ok thanks. So if a fwd is running slicks in the front at a track they warm em up?

 

Yea, they drag water to the line, but they go through the water box to do their burnout ..

It slowly ruins the track, but they have no choice.

 

if a FWD is running slicks, i would hope it to have skinnies in the back. if its running like nitto's or BFG's it just needs to do a regular dry burnout...i know i got proxies on the bird, but i still do smoke em a bit, they seem to hook better warmed up contrary to street tire belief.

 

On crappy tracks sometimes I'll spin off the crap on my FWD, but not anything longer than 2 seconds or so. Just enough to get the road oil/tar/grease and sand off them.

 

Exactly. A lot of my friends have cars that make do with power to only two wheels, and they get best results with a very short 2 second burnout, at the least once before the first run.
