    I do from time to time, especially on wet pavement but then again my e30 is not my daily but more of a weekend/fun car. When i do my s50 swap i have a feeling i will leave a lot of rubber on the pavement within the first few weeks haha!

      I've never done a burnout (!)


      Eventually I'll try one but I don't get the point of making it a regular thing.

        I do it occasionally when its not going to cause any harm to me, my car or people around me.
        But i do work at michelin now, So i get free BFGoodrich/Michelin tires. That makes it harder to not want to lol....

            Seen a few E36 M3's with the rear strut towers TORN apart! They (BMW) sells the portion of the top of the strut tower for that application!
            So burnouts will tear the strut towers huh? Interesting...

            Hell yes I do burnouts. Turbos make them extra fun!

                  After replacing my driveshaft I've decided not to do many burnouts anymore. This is the extent of the wheelspin you'll get from me at this point.

                    That's basically exactly as harmful to your driveline as a first gear brakestand. The initial clutch dump is really the greatest shock.

                        does sliding around in the rain count?

                            Never done them simply because I don't want a cop pulling me over and why wear out tires?

                                right ;)
