Okay, you’re probably wondering what’s going on here and what’s the purpose of this burnout? Who knows! Of course, there’s also the question of whether those racks are street legal. Burnouts are popular, and the whole deal is to keep the wheels stationary while creating smoke due to friction.
However, most people are unaware that tire is not burning and that the smoke is primarily the result of vapor that is similar to steam. Tires that are set on fire will burn thick, black smoke, which is rarely the result of a burnout.
Burnouts are a serious form of competition in some circles and a legitimate form of competition in their own right. Participants compete for prizes and money. And car and contraptions sometimes get sponsored in the process. Burnouts are wildly popular in Australia and the US. Give it time, and the world will catch on.
