which is a good way to get rid of this???

yesterday i locked up my tires and flatspotted them them when i was racing an 80s porsche but i was sticking him but then we came to a stop sign and i had to lock it up anyway what is an easy way to get rid of flatspotting in front tires? if worse comes to worse i will put the fronts in the rear and get new fronts and burn the flatspotted ones up so they are round again.
thanx for the help!

Yeah, you buy new tires.

Trying to burn them off won't do anything.. by the time you could burn the tires round again you'd be hitting the wires in the tire.

its not that bad on when your on a flat road you can feel it. you can't even tell looking at the tire where they are flatspotted. and the front tires are only a couple of months old.
any other ideas??

Go to a tire shop and have them shaved.
