heh, give it to me, i seem to have a knack for that (just today i exposed a couple inches worth of threads on the tire i've been using as my rear for less than a week)

i mean seriously, is there something i'm doing wrong here?...i'm pretty sure it's not the gearing(46x17)...should i be doing intermittent skips instead of long, sustained skids? is it the roads i'm skidding on? is it my weight distribution? something else?
