They have done tests and actually shown that power sliding (aka spinning the rear wheel on corner exit) is actually easier on the tires the a normal power out. (At least that was before traction control). The reason being is that it only heated up the outer skin of the tire instead of the whole tire.

Oh yeah and when its bikes, its not drifting, its power sliding, backing it in, or spinning it on exit.

You guys are too young - back when 500's ruled the World, almost all of the riders rode like that. Late 80's and early 90's had some the best riding ever.

Also had about 3 good highsides each race when they got it wrong or the tires wore out.
