Looks to me like either it is photo shopped or it pulled the wheels while excelerating out of a burnout or that is excess smoke coming out of the wheel wells after a burnout. It takes traction to get that much weight off of the ground, end of story.

 

That is worm boy's car.... it has run in the 7's... and very will could have pulled the wheels exiting the burnout box. But, that car is not the norm LOL.

 

launching at 6k on slicks and popping a wheelie will take its toll on even the stoutest rears. if something will snap a 9", that would be one of the top contenders.

 

excess smoke is oil burning.. something with the turbo, i can't remember what they said. That is off a launch though...
