I had gotten some blacktop tar stuck to my rear tires last night. Couldn't get it off with a towel and water. So we headed out to a concrete road with 2Liter Mt. Dew bottles filled with water to try and burn them off. Only good video we got. We recorded more but I keep getting a "bad file" error message on the rest of them.

I didn't stay in it with this one. Should have kept going. The others were better. Blah.

But it worked for the most part. There is still a thin layer on the tire, but I think a few more of these and they should be clean again. That shit is nasty once it gets stuck on a drag radial. :burnout:

The kids I'm racing own all of that, private property. They said it's cool. :lol:

I'm still trying to figure out what they "own" on woodward where they can race?
 
Man you took it easy on those tires. I thought the tires would have come off the rims or catch fire with the power your car makes.

LoL, no. I did take it easy on them. I want to actually keep these tires and use them the rest of the season. If I didn't care I would have just matted it. :lol:
