    i seen it as well not sure if it was the tires smoking on the dyno or the tires rubbing the well lips on the quarters so bad that were causing the smoke. he had to acctully stop and cut a big hunk of it out because it started to cut into the tire and was throwing marble sized chunks of rubber into the crowd none the less very impressive 535hp
