Weightless White....on fire?

Got this pic from the other thread.

First attempt at pic attachment.

I am surprised no one mentioned it.

Check it out those wheels.

Dude is warping the **** outta the rotors?
I.E. Prolly pads are GONE and he's still braking as if he's about to hit a cow.

if you don't 'bed' the brake pads properly and let them dry out, you can catch them on fire. I did this myself with my S2000 at www.beaverun.com in october. I got black flagged due to my wheel / brake being on fire. Sounded neat but not too neat.

I saw a guy in a Lightning do that same thing at an auto-x once. Looked exactly like the same as the picture. Did you know that Ford used the same brakes on the normal f150 as the Lightning. However, they are pretty good for a truck. Much better than those sucky Chev 1500 series brakes any way. I just expected at least f250 brakes.

Doubt it is photochopped.
