If I still had some sort of muscle car, I may on a rare occasion, do a burn out, but it wouldn't normally be a power brake style burnout, it would just be a smoky launch. But I can't say for sure since the last time I did a burn out was when I was about 24.

I have been known to occasionally get the rear out in a corner in the various sports cars that I've had which is really not that much different than the display.

More on topic, since Paul thought it was interesting that this burnout record was set in Australian (don't forget, they are where we got the last V-8 Elcamino and the most recent Pontiac GTO).

The largest, or maybe second largest car show in the world, mostly cool old American iron, is in Sweden.

The best part is that if you watch these with the sound off, you'd swear you were looking at videos from Alabama or someplace in the SE USA, but then listen to them speak, and you begin thinking "um bork, bork, bork"
