Just did a burn-out on a truck this weekend.
6 tires in the cab along with some wood scraps , half gallon of diesel fuel , and a road flare.
Let it get going pretty good before we hit it with a 2 and a half at 120 psi.
Then had to cool it down and reset for the next trainees.

Brake torques, make sure you dump a little water on the pavement first to get the tires spinning. Off the line you might want to stop with your rear tires right on the thick white line at the light or stop sign. Other then that... a V-8 !!!

It's more just a chirp since the traction control kicks in right away. Older buses are nice to drive for the simple fact, manual selection trans. Even though it's an auto you can choose gear.
Some new ones still have this as an option but our novas and all hybrids are just P/R/D.

I'll take an old GMC bus or a fishbowl over a hybrid in any snow, any day.

What's scary at times is when you are slowing down, the brake assist is kicking in and you hit that stripe and the fronts lock up and you slide until you reach pavement. All you hear is click click click from the ABS.
