At least it's better to see the burnouts happen on a set of 17's rather than 19's or higher

and my opinion is, if he is going to act foolish and post about a burnout, on a luxury car site, he deserves to be told so.

Just as if I threw on some 19" KONIGS, or some 18" Chrysler 300C wheels (just because they fit) I would HOPE that you guys would give me an e-smack and tell me I'm an idiot for doing so

We have had various threads about the abilty of the GS4 to burn the rears and this is the first one I have seen NT2SHBBY post a reply too. Why is that?

We have 1 thread with a vid of a burnout... all GS members seemed to appreciate it. Why not another?



Most threads discuss the new found ability to do this after TC or LSD install... I give another 4 those of us who do this just fine without.



I am 33 and I still enjoy breakin the rears loose every now and again.

I dunno, maybe because I JUST JOINED A MONTH AGO???!!!!! geesh.....

I don't appreciate stupidity..and a burnout, especially with expensive low profile tires is STUPIDITY IMO

If he wants to waste rubber, I guess it is his prerogative. My only concern is if you are going to do it, please don't do it on what looks like a residential street. You are just putting others in potential harm's way.

I got no problems with the burnout. Have fun man and smoke those tires once and awhile. My only problem is that you chose to do so in a residential neighborhood. You should do it in an empty parking lot or something next time. Just my opinion.

Whatever...

maybe since I am on here quite a bit I know how many of these posts have been on the front page of the GS forum within the last month.

I do know since I have been a member on here starting April when I bought my GS this is the first time I have seen another GS owner and forum member trash someone else for what they wanted to post...

Sad. to NT2SHBBY

As soon as the Hurricane passes I will take some vid of my GS400 burning the rears... I think we need to see a Cinnabar car do it...

I am glad you never saw me drive

We are all entitled to our opinions. I didn't see any personal attacks.
