Nah mate, it's not your tyres that are the problem...it's your brakes! Ease off on the front one a bit :wink:

And it looks like you have slotted reverse too. Check out the back wheel :wink:

You should be ashamed doing burnouts like that. You'll never catch me doing such irresposable activities :twisted:

The tyre is not the problem, it is what they use in the bitumen there, doesn't offer any traction properties at all :rolleyes:
