Sorry, you'll have to find it there. There are only two pics so it isn't a problem. The file is too big to attach here and I don't know how to convert it or drop the size.

By the way, I'm not done with this yet. I'm probably going to keep trying stupid things like this until I get some damn colored smoke. So, if I'm doing anything wrong or you have some tips, please let me know.

I'm going to compare some fog machine fluid vs clorox bleach this weekend also. See what throws up more smoke. (The fog juice probably won't do crap.)

try and NOT use bleach. try water and jello and see if it will work.

philoldsmobile

jello still sounds weird to me, we call it jelly.

how about red poster paint powder, would that work, or would it just make a mess??

actualy, thinking about it, bad idea, it would probably stain paintwork.

Jekyll & Hyde

Well any new pictures?!?

I think that you would have to use one full canister. Maybe even two, you gotta think that the smoke is taking up the air.

paint would just make a mess...im gonna go to the store tomorrow and look at all the powdered color things that i can find, maybe we can def. do something

brig

OK you sucked me in. Wouldn't bleach "BLEACH" any coloring in the kool-aid?
Have fun cleaning your car after. Bleach can't be to good for your paint.

the bleach has a high acidity level, and itll nutralize most koolaids etc. i have used bleech for burnouts in my car, and it gets real hot real quick, and i actually spun my tires alot, and no rubber got stuck to my car...and all the bleech turned to smoke.

84Z28_5.7ltr_V8

i told u guys i would do it! look at the pic i posted

this topic will not die until we get some sort of colored smoke, nomatter what it may be

89firechicken

i just watched the video and i have to say thats funny. to bad they didnt show that guy get his a$$ kicked. well that just goes to show that crumple zones do work

kfoley

Not lfaming or anything, but actually bleach (aka liquid chlorine or sodium hypochlorite) is basic with a pH of about 13 (12.8 to be exact). About the only thing my AFO cert is good for.....

83Firebird420

thats the best burnout iv ever seen....but the stick mans the coolest

edit: i dont know how to include pics with quotes

84Z28_5.7ltr_V8

luckily i was holind the brake down or i would have crashed into my garage.


mental note : never do a burnout on driveway when facing garage and a person is in front of you.

MarkB

ugh...this crap doesnt work. i know i fried a set of tires trying to get it to work..

tried every variable...bleach and koolaid,water and coolaid,blach and jello powder...water and jello powder...NOTHING worked...the smoke was white every time..also tried doing it several ways...like mixing it...keeping each seperate..and rolling through each individually...nothing worked. someone TRY and prove me wrong.

83Firebird420

how can u afford to go threw a set of tires like that?

iTrader: (1)

buy used ones from a yard or shop for 15 dollars each. 30 bucks is well worth the fun, and pictures
heh

brodyscamaro

yup thats what i do take a look at the back wheels/tires

jocww

lets seee the pics come on

lbrohez

i know a way to get colored smoke,

..

#1 go get some cheap wheels/tires from junkyard

#2 go to walmart and pick up some spray paint of your choice of colors

#3 take paint and new tires/wheels home

#4 paint the tread on the wheels with about 4 coats of paint

#5 let dry

#6 install wheels on car

#7 drive into street

#8 powerbrake your car

#9 take pictures

#10 run from cops because my neighbor is a cop

How much does a line lock cost? Where can I get it? Easy or hard to install? Where does it get installed? If you guys have the option of a line lock, why would you put all this stress on your car by powerbreaking? Do all the cars that are built for drag racing use line locks, when they do their burn-out before their pass? -89IRO

jocww

jegs sells them they arnt too too hard to install u hit the brakes u hit the button u release the brakes and now its locked then u hit the gas do ur burnout hit the button to release the lock and u go off

89IRO

Cool, thanks man. These things are used for drag racing so they don't roll in the staging lanes with a stick car, but do the racers also use it to do their burnouts? Another words, does it hold the front brakes stong enough to do a full on burnout, plus to hold them at the line? Thanks. -89IRO

jocww

yea racers use them they will hold ur brakes on till you want them to go off or 10,000 or more psi goes against them funny cars dont use them because i think they're illegal in those stages and they have so much power they dont need them. you can use them anywhere you want but in the bleach box you shouldnt have to use them cuz the beach is there for you to slide

D M N

i thought this was about koolaid-burnout not line locks so did anyone ever try it??

kfoley

Some people said they did, but they never got any good pics of it....

Would that work?!?!? i think im getting a new set of 17's so my 16X8 iroc tires are going up in smoke as of the beginning of next summer.

alright i need a new set of tires if the weather holds up i'll do it we havent had any snow yet my tires look like slicks right now so when i get the money for my new tires i'll do it

irocbirdbuilder

The rs had brand new tires when i bought it i have a thing on my dig. cam for 30 sec video i may get some koolaid and give it a whirl with someone taping it. Any flavor suggestions?

A88GTANotchback

Orange.....i demand it! how the hell is there a post 4 pages long about kool aid!

kfoley

Use a dark color so that it will show up in the smoke better. Get a few packs (the little ones, not the stuff with the sugar mixed already) and mix it with a little water and put it in front of the tires. Then do you're burnout and it'll scoot into the kool aid. Don't use bleach though, it'll break down the kool aid.

JACKO

Man I remember this post from WAAAAAAYYY back, So is there pics or do I have to go through the entire 4 pages?
I don't want ifs & buts I just want pics

3rdGenBlackBird

If you want to try it, listen to their advice. No bleach, LOTS of powder, get the stuff without sugar. Darker colors (or contrast) will be easier to see. I recommend the darkest red.

I tried it a few times with different mixtures, and the above is the only way that I didn't try it. It was never successful.

I used 1/3 of a canister of red (not the darkest, though) and just some water to let it spin and "mix" easier. It had sugar in it though, but I don't think it'd be a noticable difference without it. Saw nothing but white.

I doubt this idea will ever work with koolaid or jello powder. Maybe if you had some type of colored oil.... Either way, good luck and POST PICTURES!!

Why not just use water instead of bleach, then if you have extra left over and you're thirsty, drink up. Hell, put some vodka in it. Hmmm....college kids

kfoley

You can't use bleach becasue it will eat up the kool-aid. As far as the vodka goes, I hope you're not driving anywhere after that...

demonchild

i read most of the posts and didnt come across food dye and bleach. would that work?

brodyscamaro

Hmmmm, vodka and bleach and koolaid? That would be new...

kfoley

No, the bleach will eat up the color in it. Somewhere in the thread me and another guy talked about that, but i'm not sure where.

TonyC

iTrader: (1)

COME ON GUYS READ THE FRICKIN' POST, I SAID WATER AND KOOL-AID, WATER AND KOOL-AID. Ok, a little quiz for ya', what did TonyC say:

1) Water and Kool-aid (then maybe some vodka to be funny)
2) Bleach and Kool-aid, which we already know DOESN'T WORK
3) M&M's, just the red ones

I thought we were the literate thirdgen crowd

your red burn out!

You've been around too long if you remember this thread to raise it from the dead.

Still... it's amusing.

i think someone discovered those a while back. I think those are prototype tires that they're sponsor gave them. And that they arent available to the general public.....


your right though i completely forgot about this thread lol
