Koolade?
Read a post a while ago on FBODY.COM. A kid who had just gotten a camaro and didnt know how to burn out. One person suggested pouring water over the tires, and another suggested pooring koolade over the tires for a colored burn out. Not sure whether he was joking or if he knew something I didnt, I replied, asking how koolade gives you a colored burnout. I never got a response, so I'll as here. Does anyone have any experience or knowledge with this? If someone would tell me, it would save me the effort of having to make some koolade and boil it to observe the color of its steam. Above the effort, it would save me from having to do the dishes.

i can say almost certainly it would not give a colored burnout...99.99999% of what you see during a burnout is rubber smoke not boiling water/koolaid and therefore would still be that white cloud you see...sounds like the person who said that should own a civic type R.

Thats what I figured, but i thought maybe there was something I didnt know. Oh well. If it did work tho, that would make for an awsome picture. like a black car w/ red interior doing a red burnout...well, i guess thats how Adobe makes their money

when my dad was in high school, one of his friends did a bleach burn out in the parking lot during last period, in a nova ss.
pouring bleach on the tires gives you nice white smoke

it'd prolly do the same thing it'd do if u boiled it. all the water would evap. away and u'd be left with nast sticky sugary **** all over ur tires and wheel wells. sounds like a bad practical joke to me.

i started a post on thirdgen.org awhile ago about this, ended up like 300 replies haha. and alot of people tried it, and nothing happened, just white smoke. only time someone said he thought he saw a hint of different color was when he did a burnout over the yellow lines in the middle of the road

BF Goodrich makes a line of tires called "Scorcher T/A's" that have color treds in them. They range from red, blue, yellow and black. They are a tire made for the tuner market.
Personaly I like the look of a KDW-2 myself... 8)

Yea, they do. The only car I have ever actually seen them on was an 01 or 02 Cobra that I used to see out at school. Saw him light up the parking lot in blue smoke, and leave the blue strips on the ground once.....They are faint, but you can tell that they are there

Alrght. Its a rebuilt 305 with a Computer Controlled Carb (I'm not great with engines, and so far Computer Controlled Carb has 3 votes, with 1 for TBI and 1 vote for regular carb) The motor is still under warranty, so im somewhat limitedas to what I can do. Is there any way I can get a better computer controlled carb? Or am I going to have to transfer over to a regular one for any noticable power gains?
