That was definately a cool effect of the smoke coming off the tire. Makes me want to go get my GoPro's and see if I can duplicate it

I'll help... Give me a couple of weeks and we can set up two of them, one on each back tire... your car and mine... I'ld love to have that effect even in a still pic for my desktop...

It would be cool to try, but I wouldn't be surprised if that is just an effect of the tire being a racing slick. I'd think that tread would really disturb the air more than a slick would...

I have a fix for that... got some drag radials on 18 inch wheels... should be close... Good thought though...

I have a GoPro, and I'm not sure you'd get the same effect, because much of that look was because it was shot in super slow motion. GoPro isn't going to do that
