    Default Worlds Tallest Burnout

    Hey all

    Today i was lucky enough to witness the following burnout
    YouTube - Worlds Tallest Burnout

    One of the developers has connections with a mud racer, and the owner of the Scud heard about plans to take the mud racer up the top of the building. He arranged to get his datsun up there as well and attempt simultaneous burnouts. Unfortunately, the mud racer couldn't get the wheels spinning, but that didn't stop the scud.

    34 Floors up on Darwin's tallest building.

    And how do you kill someone when the car is strapped to the solid concrete?

    Thats like saying you can shoot someone with a gun that is not loaded.

    nice burnout,
    but who claimed it as the worlds tallest burnout, you say its 34 levels up, so whats that?? about 100 meters or so, probably a bit more, and you can see water in the back ground so the bottom of the building is at sea level or close to, so anyone that has done a burnout in the blue mountains of basicly any mountain has been higher then that,

    Well said

    Love how they had the car strapped into the ground, although I still would have loved to see it cutting loops on the roof
