Should this happen
 
My friend and I started doing burnouts like crazy...so bad we were able to make rubber balls from the tires on the pavement ...its ok though because we got the tires from a junk yard and replaced them with the actual tires...But heres my question...when we finished the engine made a weired ticking sound and when we lifted the hood the coolant was bubbling it was so hot...is that normal?
It was like a 20 second burnout.

Could be low oil, my engine started ticking once, my oil was low and thanfully I caught it before it was too low and put some in there, it quit ticking. Checki it before driving it again.

Just to let you know, your motor is hurt now, if it started ticking its to late, id take it easy cause it can go at anytime now!

I got it checked out, it's a new motor I just got, still under warranty, and they said it's fine, but if I had gone any farhter it would have been bad news.

The best way to burn rubber without hurting your car, is to take the wheels and tires off, pour a gallon of gasoline on them and throw a lit match on them. They will smoke like hell for a good hour. Also get a nice flame when they get hot enough and blow out. lol

if burnouts give you a rush ... take it to the drag strip. if your gonna destroy your motor, atleast do it with style. sick

You probably blew a head gasket, and it will cost to get it fixed.
