Looking for Burnouts!
Hi Everyone! I am putting together a special video on my YouTube Channel called OldsmoBobby
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCiwXjjz7qkiRvQz3CQi87iw?view_as=subscriber
I am looking for some short clips of Oldsmobiles doing big, smoky burnouts. If you like doing burnouts (on a closed course obviously), I wanna see them! If you can, please reply to this post with a video of you doing a burnout in your car. If you want, include a little description of your car, like year, model, any special packages or features, etc. I don't need any personal information and I will blur out the license plates if you haven't done that already, but any and all submissions would be greatly appreciated! I'll be checking in all throughout the month of July, so I hope to see a bunch of you showing your Oldsmobile Pride with some videos of your cars in action!
Thanks So Much,
Bobby

@Vintage Chief Yes, I know there's a ton on Youtube. If you notice, they're all old and poor quality. I was hoping for newer videos from current drivers. Not everybody still owns their Olds's. I want to see people partying in 2020, not 2002.

In 1972, I was a drag racer at most of the tracks in the region; Atco, Englishtown, Cecil County and Maple Grove. I parked my car in the driveway of my parent's home, many times with the NHRA class and numbers on the window.
We lived on a street that had moderate traffic.
I painted a starting line from one side of the street to the other, curb to curb, with the letters " START."
We, including my parents and neighbors, would see cars pull up to the "starting line" and do burnouts all hours of the day and night.
I wish that I had videos of the burnouts, tires smoking, and the cars sliding sideways. My neighbors loved sharing the experience..lol

Thanks for all your responses everyone! The other goal of this, personally, is to meet some more people in the Oldsmobile world, learn more about their cars and why they love Oldsmobiles. I think Oldsmobiles are more of a "hidden gem" of the classic car world and my hope is that by showing how badass these cars are we can grow the interest in them and get more people into the hobby we know and love.
