Best way to do a burnout with a 4 speed?

just curious as to see what is the best way to do a burnout (without the waterbox) with a four speed.

floor it and then dump the clutch?

floor it and ease the clutch out?

dump the clutch and then ease the throttle?


or

ease the clutch and ease the throttle?

what are most guys doing?

I always thought floor it and dump the clutch........

which is the best way without burning the cluth?

are you guys holding the brake too? seems pretty tricky doing all that at once......


food for thought............

anytakers?

Most cars should burn out in 2nd gear. The wheel speed in 1st is too slow to really heat the tires.
