And for those of you who WOULD get into the pit and light it up.....once you do this, your warranty is null and void! don't ask me how I found this one out.....oh yeah, I did get the free tire cause mine blew doing it. but the warranty? GONE!

Doing some burn outs you guys act like the worlds coming to a end WTF none of you have ever done a burn out come on. Your tire doesn't explode as soon as you spinning it for the guys that will spin them till they blow you rock, for the ones that talk big and never do a burnout [sorry posers] we all did burnouts in our first cars I bet
