This amazing burnout video comes to us from the YouTube Channel of Flinty460 and it features an Oldsmobile sedan from the 1930s or 1940s doing a series of gigantic burnouts at the West Coast Nats in Bindoon, Australia. Like many of our burnout features, this video includes action from an Aussie burnout competition. Their burnout battles are a bit different from those in the United States. Rather than sitting in one spot, spinning the tires for 30-60 seconds, Australian smoke shows take places in a big, open area where the competitors are free do whatever they want in order to more readily roast the tires. Americans might call this drifting or doing donuts, but in the world of monster burnouts Aussies do it better than anyone else.In most cases, Australian burnout competitions like this one are dominated by either Ford Falcons or Holden Commodores. They prefer to use what is essentially a funny car engine sticking up through the hood. However, this Olds isn’t your average Aussie burnout machine. This big Oldsmobile sedan looks like something straight out of a classic mobster movie. Rather than the low-performance engine which would have come in this antique sedan, the owner has swapped in a built LS1.During the course of this 7-minute video, the LS1-powered antique makes three incredible runs in the burnout area. The whole while creating tons of smoke and blowing several tires while the sweet sound of the built LS1 provides the soundtrack. We don"t know how well this old school Oldsmobile did in this burnout competition, but the fact that the driver went several rounds and laid down several two minute burnouts suggests that he was at least one of the frontrunners.Crank up your speakers and enjoy!Tags: australia, burnout, drift, ls1, Oldsmobile, Swaps
