fascinating.

i was just going to ask about the full time all wheel drive thing. that long of a burnout MUST have dammaged something. just imagine the heat buildup, between the engine not getting air rushing into it, the transmission at high RPMs just standing still, the transfer case's guts spinning at a million RPM for so long, and the rear gears with that much resistance, spinning for that long.

you're correct. in one of those vids he stated it was overheating and was one of the reasons he stopped.
