Burnout (vehicle)
A burnout (also known as a peel out, power brake, or brakestand) is the practice of keeping a vehicle stationary and spinning its wheels, the resultant friction causing the tires to heat up and smoke. While the burnout gained widespread popularity in California, it was created by Buddy Houston, his brother Melson and David Tatum II at Ted Edwards Drag Strip in Fairburn, Georgia (later to become Houston Bros Drag Strip and Reds Drag Strip) in the mid-1960s. Given that a burn out burns tire material, the environmental and health risks in the production of fumes are comparable to small tire fires.
