For Some reason i have been born with the need to spin wheels and burn rubber so far i have doused my back wheels clear coat and oiled them up and tightened my front wheels up i still cant get them to smoke but eventually the oil and clearcoat wheres out and leave one hell off a smell it leaves bits of rubber around the srea and the tyres seem to increase in size and occasionally slip of the rim:cool:

wow, very interesting investigation. i too wouldn\'t mind building a little bit of SMOKE :) :) :)
interesting, but i doubt that you are going to get the miniz tires to smoke.:(
but if you can get the clearcoat to rub off and a little bit of rubber to rub off then it is the same effect as smoking tires on 1:1 cars:D
you can always run on a slippery surface without tires on your rims. ( It\'s fun) But it won\'t give ya any smoke. Isn\'t there something that forms a little smoke when it gets a little bit warmed up? but that\'ll give ya smokin\' tires during the race and not when you do a burnout.

I\'m not sure but I think that magic smoke stuff might work if you put it on your tires. It comes in little tubes that say stuff like instant magic smoke and stuff. You can get it at Magic Stores and I think I saw some at Spencers in our mall. I just might try it......:)
hahaah put some dry ice in the rims before anybody sees... then run around the track yelling \"i\'m on fire!\"
lmao, sounds like fuN!!!!! or what you could do is soak the tires in gasoline, and light the tires on fire....? and drive your car around!.... \"bum bum chi!!!\"
Yeah that\'s something to try(If you wan\'t to buy a new Z ) :p
lol, just a joke, aluminum doesnt burn though.. =)
yeah but plastic rims melt
Crazy Idea but I did try and it works in my Mini-Z ...
Soak the tires in kerosene until it swells a little bit and let dry. Place them in micro-wave and put on when still hot and run on concrete ground.
You will get smoke that you will suspect your car is on fire!
you have too much spare time shapigpig! How do you find out soaking in kerosene heating in microwave etc will give smoke?
I am currently awaiting some mosfets for an internal turbo mod, when i do this i am going to put in a sub 20t motor, which is capable of almost 60mph. I think this might make some smoke :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
What motor is that? I want one. LOL
try coating the tires with bleach
I don't think the Z tires will smoke. They're not vulcanized rubber. Even then, it would take a good amount of pressure/heat.
There is a chemical used by photographers that produces a very convincing smoke look. It's almost instant too, as soon as you open the bottle. It would seem to be the perfect thing for this, except for the pungent odor. The name of this chemical? I forgot. Sorry.
put white spirit on the tires :twisted: i tried to do it on my bike, it didnt work, but i spilt it on my brakes and it smoked like crazy, i couldnt see much :D oh well.
