I'm getting my BFG tires removed this morning at Herchick's in Macedonia. Give me a call if you want the fronts and/or rears, maybe meet me there and transfer them to your rims.?.

The fronts have some bad inner wear, but some tread. The rears are down to 1-2mm of inside tread, but outside still there.

Would like to go, but wife won free tix to game.

I called the shop...you're not there yet.

I'll try to meet you there and take the 420's off for this event.

I have never spent so much time cleaning up after shredding a set of tires in my life.

The had a huge water box, and we did our burnouts on a steel plate.
There wasn't the normal tire crud on the quarters. Instead, it was like a sticky film. A film enveloped the entire rear of the car, the wheels inside and out, and all of the undercarriage including all of my powdercoated suspension parts.

Originally I thought I got off easy...until I got home and discovered the entire rear of the car was like flypaper.

I found that armour-all cleaner wipes take that crap right off the powdercoated suspension parts quite easily.

Overall it was a good day. We raised nearly 8k for the kids.

The video, filmed by my wife the NON-Videographer! has really poor audio for some reason after I coverted it from MOV to AVI.

So, did you win....?

Ha!

I do alright...and even got a standing o...

But the guys that won are nut cases.

A camaro ran so long that steel belts beat the sides of his car. :eek:

A kid in a mustang went so long he threw a rod.:stupid:

A guy in an old pickup truck actually launched a tire into the parking lot wtf! :censor:

I guess it's tough crowd in my neighborhood.:lol:

That was good,Oh yes doing a burnout on a steel plate there is nothing for the tire to tear up but itself or the car as the other idiots did.The rubber kind of turns into a mist and gets very sticky and everywhere.I did that with on old pontiac once samething happened.
