Burnout resistant bitumen?

i resent that. i say it would be closer to Charnie.

I could use some in my street. Many people think Bougainville is in PNG. Boganville is in fact in Tuggeranong.

Hope they install it on the roads inside EPIC!

I think ‘wheelies’ is a much older word than ‘burnouts’. Until fairly recently ‘wheelies’ was by far the preferred word in the UK & Ireland. Don’t know how long burnouts has been in use here but wheelies used to be used here as well… only it was less common when there were fewer people and even fewer cars.

I don’t do burnouts, but I doubt this approach will stop those who do.

This same stuff was laid down two years ago. Many cars are unable to do burnouts, and those that can have there tyres eaten alive. The fact that it has been there for a couple of years shows how effective it is. People who are cashed up enough to pour tens of thousands into a car, don’t care about spending eighty bucks and buying a pair of dodgy tyres to put on the back. You’ll often see cars with sparkling rims on the front, and steel wheels on the back, it justmeans they’ve changed their wheels for the night, putting on the so called “shi**ers”

I went to school with the guy who made the wheelies comment. He often had a way with words…

More tyre damage = more expensive burnout rate which therefore = less burnouts in the future.

Nothing like bringing the cost back to the bogan – I like it.

I believe the road mix is a coarse surface with larger stones. This tends to do more tyre damage and leave less noticeable black lines, when compared to very smooth surface bitumen.

You can do them in cars to with significant amounts of HP like 1000hp and in fact grippy tarmac like “burnout-resistant bitumen” helps because you need a lot of traction and also a very strong drive line. You see it at the drags quite a bit and usually means the car isn’t setup well or way to much HP for the chassis setup. Can be helped with a progressively locked up clutch. haha but were getting of topic lol

I thought “Wheelies” were something you do on your bike.

Well id say one of these nice 615 cube big blocks would render there silly “burnout-resistant bitumen” useless. lol
