Kinda bummed out that the Vette is being put away soon so I’m going to try to enjoy it for the next few days…

Took it out tonight and I can do a rolling burnout from 60 MPH on MT ET street radials at base boost, which happens to be 13psi in this cold weather. I know it’s nothing like sssmokin’s traction problems, but it still makes me laugh!

Winter sucks.

I once heard that Smokin hooked up a CVT to his car and still spun at 10000mph

To be honest, the traction problems are bullshit. WOT blasts lift the car off the ground. Perhaps he is talking about cruising?

Smokin does not purchase his own tires-goodyear sends them over for testing.

Spinning tires in an AWD is very weird. You can feel the lack of traction and then traction.
