Koolade?

[SpeakersGoBoom]

Read a post a while ago on FBODY.COM. A kid who had just gotten a camaro and didnt know how to burn out. One person suggested pouring water over the tires, and another suggested pooring koolade over the tires for a colored burn out. Not sure whether he was joking or if he knew something I didnt, I replied, asking how koolade gives you a colored burnout. I never got a response, so I'll as here. Does anyone have any experience or knowledge with this? If someone would tell me, it would save me the effort of having to make some koolade and boil it to observe the color of its steam. Above the effort, it would save me from having to do the dishes. :lol:

i can say almost certainly it would not give a colored burnout...99.99999% of what you see during a burnout is rubber smoke not boiling water/koolaid and therefore would still be that white cloud you see...sounds like the person who said that should own a civic type R.

Thats what I figured, but i thought maybe there was something I didnt know. Oh well. If it did work tho, that would make for an awsome picture. like a black car w/ red interior doing a red burnout...well, i guess thats how Adobe makes their money :lol:

when my dad was in high school, one of his friends did a bleach burn out in the parking lot during last period, in a nova ss.

pouring bleach on the tires gives you nice white smoke

[ar0ck]

Im not sure, but I heard it has to do with the powder.

[Trans Am Chick]

it'd prolly do the same thing it'd do if u boiled it. all the water would evap. away and u'd be left with nast sticky sugary **** all over ur tires and wheel wells. sounds like a bad practical joke to me.

[EVIL90SS]

thats just like not wiping your ass after a big ****...it just dosnt make any sense.

[89 Trans Am WS6]

You need those tires with the colored strips yo!

[9secfirebird]

i started a post on thirdgen.org awhile ago about this, ended up like 300 replies haha. and alot of people tried it, and nothing happened, just white smoke. only time someone said he thought he saw a hint of different color was when he did a burnout over the yellow lines in the middle of the road

They are ****ing with you.

[SpeakersGoBoom]

tires with colored stripes? explain

[ar0ck]

Yummy, I just finished a glass of Koolaid.

[BigAls87Z28]

tires with colored stripes? explain

BF Goodrich makes a line of tires called "Scorcher T/A's" that have color treds in them. They range from red, blue, yellow and black. They are a tire made for the tuner market.
Personaly I like the look of a KDW-2 myself... 8)

Yea, they do. The only car I have ever actually seen them on was an 01 or 02 Cobra that I used to see out at school. Saw him light up the parking lot in blue smoke, and leave the blue strips on the ground once.....They are faint, but you can tell that they are there

was the smoke difinitively blue, or just, yea, thats kinda blue?

[Tru2Chevy]

Just kinda blue.....enough to notice the difference, but not enough to make it bright blue or anthing.

Do they make orange, or just those colors you said?

dude just spend the money that you wanna drop on ricer tires on some go-fast goodies...its much more fun to show everyone your tailights rather than colored tire smoke :roll:

screw bolt-ons...for the price of those tires im sure you could do a decent suspension...lt1/lt4 cam...good intake manifold...tuning...it doesnt take much to get those cars into the low 15s high 14s

[SpeakersGoBoom]

Alrght. Its a rebuilt 305 with a Computer Controlled Carb (I'm not great with engines, and so far Computer Controlled Carb has 3 votes, with 1 for TBI and 1 vote for regular carb) The motor is still under warranty, so im somewhat limitedas to what I can do. Is there any way I can get a better computer controlled carb? Or am I going to have to transfer over to a regular one for any noticable power gains?

[ar0ck]

take off the intake and look at it

1. if its TBI it has fuel lines going directly into 4 holes.
2. If its carb, it has two openings and 2 vented openings (secondaries)

Its really not hard.

[SpeakersGoBoom]

Well, whatever it is...I wanna paint it chevy block orange. Does anyone have any ideas how id go about doing it/what kinda paint to use/if i should just have someone do it for me?

Hmm.....I don't think I've ever seen someone paint their carb....

[SpeakersGoBoom]

lol. not the car. the engine. my neibors got a 70 chevelle ss with a chevy block orange motor. looks pretty sweet. jw, did old pontiacs come with a baby blue motor? my old gto's motor seems to have a little bit of light blue paint on it, and i was wondering what that was.

[Tru2Chevy]

Ahh.....I thought you just wanted to paint the carb, not the whole motor.

And the old Pontiacs were not baby blue....it was a specific Pontiac blue (Official parts color of CPR :wink: )

well, anyway, i like the orange better, personally. how would i go about doing that? or should i just save up and pay someone?
