People in my high school did stuff like that. Some guys ran bleach in thier reservoir. Talk about a smoke show. You could deplete a brand new tire in one sitting.

My '70 F100 will fry my 31x10.50's on demand, wet or dry. Sure wish I had a trac-lock though. Rotating the rear tires is getting to be a chore.
