Default Show me your best burnout

Lemme see what you got. I tried on Saturday, and this was th best I could muster , I know its sad. I just dont have enough power to overcome the rear brakes, and then if I let up the brakes too much, I go forward and gain traction

Oh well, enough about me, show me yours

Whoa now, I love my car and everyone who knows me knows that. I take all the measures in the world to prevent any damage, and I know where to stop.

In my opinion the quality of a burnout is determined without the brakes applied, in which case no nearly stock SC is that great. Rear discs are pretty tough to overcome, and if you do your cooking them. Get a line lock

Umm I can go take a picture of a burnout I did a few months ago. That $h!t looks like a black sharpie on the road, and it still hasn’t gone away, even thought it has rained so much. I hadn’t done anything stupid like that for a long time but its fun to mess around every once and a while.

OLT - I here where your coming from and to my defense I pamper my car in every which way, but when it comes to driving it I tend to drive it hard. As long as I think I could do it safely and without endangering anyone, I’m down to waste some tires every now and then.

Tommy,
Could you do that without your brakes? If so, I really gotta get a torque converter!

I could do it if I tried very hard, but for the time in question I just made a turn and gunned it. I got both wheels the break and it was awesome, I hadn't had fun like that in a long time.

I dont know, my SC 300 is not modified and this spring I had a heck of a burn out...whole parking lot was covered in smoke (maybe not the whole parking lot). I think you guys can do better. No pics of it though so its basically just my word.
