Subject: [Shotimes] Sunday car show burnout!


Sunday, at the all-Ford Show in E. Peoria, IL as we were 
leaving, Larry Eck and I were joking about doing burnouts on 
the way out.  This show is on a private entry road and in 
the past they have encouraged burnouts as people are leaving.

For some reason they weren't doing many at all.  One reason 
was the amount of people walking on the road getting to 
their cars if they didn't have one in the show.  Another 
reason was the big transport that was picking up the new 
Mustang Prototype that had been displayed there (incorrectly 
advertised as the "2005" mustang in ads).

As Larry and I were pulling out, I stopped (in my 91 Mocha 
Plus) to get out and talk with a friend that was watching 
all the cars leave.  He owns several GTO's and is famous for 
  doing a burnout at ANY event he attends.  Larry went on 
home so he missed what followed.

After watching the Mustang prototype load, and most cars 
were gone, we decided to leave.  I decided to try a burnout 
since most people were off the road.

Rev'd it up nice, dropped the hammer and layed a nice 
two-wheel patch for about 20 feet!

My friend heard several people standing around to comment: 
"all these modified Mustangs and what does the best burnout? 
  A FWD Taurus!"

Larry, I did the SHO Club proud!

glad that my differential survived the torture!   ;)
