Video: C5 Corvette Burnout Ends In Some Seriously Toasted Brakes

In an epic roasting of rubber, a C5 Corvette Burnout results in a fiery display of how to cook your brakes. Just about every gearhead loves a good burnout, putting that pedal down to the metal in a smoky showing of awesomeness. That being said, this driver must have been unsure of the full extent of the damage this display would cost him. A new set of tires and brakes does not come cheap, but that may be the least of his concerns at this point.

No doubt that it was an impressive burnout, but the owner seemed blissfully unaware that his car was catching fire. Bystanders capture the full display on video, but apparently never bothered to clue this guy in. This tire shredding action taking place at Americruise 2015 in Lincoln, Nebraska; an annual event known for the gathering of some of the sickest rods and custom cars from across the nation. This C5 lighting it up, definitely gave one hell of a showing.  

Unfortunately, this cool nighttime showing resulted in a wicked display of spontaneous combustion filling the air with the sweet smell of burning rubber and brakes. We can pretty well assume that this undoubtedly cost the owner a pretty penny, while the spectating gearheads got their fill of excitement.

By far one of the coolest displays of power to the pavement we have seen in a while, but would any of you go to this extreme for the sake of bragging rights?

About the author

Bridgett Davis

Growing up in Greenwood, Indiana a short distance from the world famous Indianapolis Motor Speedway, my dad would take me to local car shows and events. Through this I gained my passion. Along with cars, I have always loved photography, writing, and graphic arts. However when attending college I did not pursue my passions. I played it safe and majored in business and marketing. After a few years in this field I determined this was not for me and began to pursue a writing and photography career. Landing me here with Power Automedia. I am also now the business owner of Bridgett's Toxic Creations. Specializing in automobile showboards, custom license plates, logos, and website headers. Living and breathing the Mustang life everyday in everyway. To be able to work in my field of passion is amazing and fun experience everyday. The best part is sharing a common passion with others.
