How embarassing!

I wonder about the extent of the damage.

This, not to mention our glass diff doesn't hold up well to abuse.....mayhap he was on a Puddymod......

Any case, embarrassing for the S2000 cause.

That's why you do it when they are all wore out & it's time to change out the rears. But then again, you'd actually have to drive the car enough to wear out the tires in the first place.

My car won't really do them without a clutch dump.

^s2k's burn just fine have to rev to 6k Hold then slowly let off clutch once car starts moving floor it I promise you will burn thoes tires.
Practice in large parking lot or track. Say goodbye to your tires and clutch will burn some too. But diff will not explode and be happy.

dont dump clutch.

I just put new back tires on so no more for awhile.

Bliss takes no responsibility for any of his advice. So be safe!

WOW! Very embarrassing. Funny how one person grabbed his lip? of the ground and handed it thru the window. Wonder if he had any suspension problems after?
