  2. Spinner (wheel) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spinner_(wheel)

    The song title refers to driving while having spinning rims installed on the car. In the first line of the song, DJ Paul urges all the "players out there ridin' spinners" to "stop, and let 'em keep spinnin' baby", and the chorus repeatedly proclaims that the spinners "don't stop". [ 27 ]

  3. Burnout (vehicle) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burnout_(vehicle)

    Burnouts are most difficult to perform in four-wheel drive and all-wheel drive cars, as they have better traction than FWD or RWD vehicles. It requires significantly more powerful engines to break all four tires loose at the same time, and the tires will spin for only a short while before all four gain traction. [citation needed]

  4. Wheelspin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wheelspin

    A wheelspin occurs when the force delivered to the tire tread exceeds that of available tread-to-surface friction and one or more tires lose traction.This leads the wheels to "spin" and causes the driver to lose control over the tires that no longer have grip on the road surface.

  6. Wagon-wheel effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wagon-wheel_effect

    The wagon-wheel effect is most often seen in film or television depictions of stagecoaches or wagons in Western movies, although recordings of any regularly spoked rotating object will show it, such as helicopter rotors, aircraft propellers and car rims. In these recorded media, the effect is a result of temporal aliasing. [1]

  7. Skid (automobile) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skid_(automobile)

    A burnout is when a car intentionally locks the front wheels to hold the car in place while spinning the rear wheels. The dynamic friction of the spinning tire against the road causes significant amounts of the tire's rubber to be deposited onto the road surface, and increased temperature from friction usually creates dense white smoke. It is ...

  8. Doughnut (driving) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doughnut_(driving)

    Performing this maneuver entails rotating the rear or front of the vehicle around the opposite set of wheels in a continuous motion, creating (ideally) a circular skid-mark pattern of rubber on a carriageway and possibly even causing the tires to emit smoke from friction. [1]
