thank you. the video is on my instagram page (thumbnail to the bottom of my avatar).
funny thing is this burnout happened unintentionally..I ended up pressing onto the brakes for too long for an exhaust clip, and decided to just ride it out.

My car looks just like that, or even worse because it's black. We usually have one snow day a year here where I'm from, and unfortunately between Tuesday and Saturday (tomorrow) I will have driven roughly 700mi through all of it due to 2 separate road trips for work. All on Pilot SuperSports too. My car looks somewhere between gray and white with all the salt and sand and it hurts my feelings to even look at it. I can't wait to clean it up.

Not that I'd advocate summer tires in these temps/conditions, but of the summer tires, they're surprisingly decent when they warm up, if the road is dry. When cold, they're like hockey pucks, though, and you can especially hear them when you turn. By contrast, the winter tires are good to go.

I agree 100% on the terrible noise at full lock when turning, but for the 600+ miles I put on them in the crap weather we've been having lately, I'm completely satisfied.

Almost six years of ownership, and she still has me hooked.

I must have sent your pictures to 20 people today. So i'm guessing the wide angle to encompass the whole interior from door to door. What was the exposure time? I saw a similar effect on True Detective and in 2001. Great job.

thanks.

im using a 4 second exposure time.

yes.. i used the wide angle to get it all in. the camera is about where my head is so a regular lens would capture very little.
