I had my car out for a drive, coming home I stopped in front of my neighbors house (chevy guy with a blown monza). I did about a 30' burnout then pulled in to my gravel drive. Now I have small gravel and leaves stuck all around my tires. I could hear the gravel pinging off the underside of the car as I came up the drive. Now I get to clean it all off Oh well live and learn. I have had these tires for several years but never went into gravel with them hot.
 
Bet you won't do that again! We'll do it when you leave your house!

Three different tracks I use to frequent, had pits in a grass field and gravel roadways. Man that fills your fender wells with stones. Then when you're in the water box, doing your burnout, stones drop out and go flying back on the cars in the staging lanes.

One time I was useing a video in the staging lanes, two cars heating them up and a stone came back and hit me right in the mouth! After reviewing the video, you could see it leaving the back of the car and followed it right back to me. Ouch!
