    Hey all,

    So I have to get a burnout on film, and I was wondering if anyone has any cheats for exaggerating the effect or even some easy cheat. I know the old front tyre against a wall, but the shot is going to a wide shot, so thats out of the question. I've also heard putting some WD40 down helps. any truth to that? I also want to minimise tyre damage, so maximum smoke, minimum rubber.

     

    Cheers

    I should ad, i'm not asking how to do a burnout, but rather, tips and tricks to make a small shitty one easier and seem bigger. all for the purposes of filming it.

    I've never tried to preserve a tyre while doing a burnout, but what the hell, try some bleach on the ground, nice smokey burnouts or if you want a fire burnout - use petrol.

    3rd with mine is a good mix of smoke and nice revs.

    A bit of oil will help get her started without shocking the belt etc but as for preserving the tyre, that ain't gonna happen :)

    the faster you can get that back wheel spinning the more smoke you will create so as soon as that tyre gets nice and hot start up shifting in the gears.

     

    HAHA NOT EVEN PUSHBIKES NEED TO CHEAT

    If you have time to spare I've been told soaking the tyre in oil gains the best result.

    Well the shoot was last night. There will still be a video to come, but for now here is a still I pulled from the footage and added some grit to.

    My buddy pumped a smoke machine on the other side of the pic and piped it through the rear .

    we ended up using a smoke machine for fill too, for the wide shot, so it seemed like the burnout had been going on longer than it had. this pic though doesn't show any "fake" smoke, just helped along with some WD40
