What is the go with the security condoning big burnouts on the cruise track sometimes, but on other occasions they peel stickers off for smallish skids. I dont get it.

If I had my entrant sticker peeled off by some wanna be thug, I would be very pissed. Especially when they let others do skids.

I agree the security at Summernats are far from consistent.What is the go with the security condoning big burnouts on the cruise track sometimes, but on other occasions they peel stickers off for smallish skids. I dont get it.
At Summernats 19 I had some security staff urging me to perform burnouts and others were happily throwing those out that did.. This was later brought to Chic Henrys attention but from the short time I was there this yr it was very obvious that nothing had changed.
However burnouts small or large should not be condoned when the public are allowed so close to the cars doing the laps (circuits). A small burnout here and another there give the wrong signals. There is a burnout pad provided, why not use it and endanger no one?

i dont mind the back but the fronts to high, looks like a 4wd.^^^What size rims did that have????? 20's??
17's on the front and a hot rod rake would be my mods, or lower the front ( mod the flares so they dont scrape). He must of modded the firewall quite a fair bit so they dont scrub on full lock
