daily burnout

if i did a burnout every day, varying in time and throttle amounts (depending on mood/situation ie some just a lil chirp, some to smoke like a **** ), what bad things would happen to my car.

Tires, rear-end, clutch (if you're a manual), tranny, body might start twisting? Oh, and tires.

lol have you ever seen a tranny mount? nothing bad should happen to it unless its about to break anyways. Nothing bad should happen to your dif its just a little extra strain and as far as your tq converter all it is is fluid and some fins you wont wreck it from doing a burnout.... Your body wont twist maybe it potentially could if you were doing doughnuts but i still doubt it. I dont really see anything bad happening to your car its just youll go through a set of tires every week!

I agree only tires will go.. It would be added stress on the rest of your driveline but it wouldn't cause any damage for at least a year. But if you overrevved your engine you could spin a bearing, you could weakend your valve springs and not rev as high, Why would you want to do a burnout everyday? I do at least nine a weekend and maybe 2-3 during the week on race nights, but are you racing? are you warming up the tires of just leaving the parking lot? There is a difference!

Just remember when you do it ease out of it. DOn't just floor it until they stop spinning cause when it catches your trans might go. I accidently do one almost every day just by hitting the gas to hard or when it shifts they chirp.
