bleach
mix oil and bleach and brakestand in that. Makes it slip easier, and smokes up a ton.
Now that's a highschool hillbilly party there!

You know, Im guessing its a random thing, different composition of each tire or something.

I was driving my dads v6 mustang one day, and some kids I knew were behind me so I did a break stand, a cloud of smoke no lower than 60 feet was engulfing my car and everything around us in less than 20 seconds, my dads tires/breaks were trashed so I replaced them.
