burnout question

I feel really dumb asking this, but..... how do you do a burnout so you don't move forward at all?

ummmmmmmm hold brake. . . Floor it. . . release brake when ready to move If you have a stick get one of those line lockers that SLP sells to hold front brakes Takes some practice on a stick not for me, but maybe for you

hold revs up round 3 or so, then drop it, and quikly hold the brake, not to hard though, and keep ur revs high enough to spin the tires, but not to high nor to low. get some water patches and practice, with some crap tires.

Talos, I know you are not talking about a neutral drop. If that is what you are talking about do not do it!!!!! I had done that several times on my v6 camaro and I learned my lesson . I had to replace my driveshaft(i think) and cost me 500 bills. I didnt know about cars then, so now I spread my knowledge to you all .

Lol first time I did a standing burnout I smelt clutch real bad. It's easy though, don't do it in first because it will rev up fast. Try it in second, it will smoke up faster too (tires spinning faster). Just throw some revs, drop the clutch and move your foot hella fast before your tires start to catch. Then gas it and burn 'em up like there's no tomorrow
