Default burnout question

This might sound stupid but i've been wanting to learn how to do a burnout.
i know how to do it but i want to learn how to do a long one like i see other drivers do it for like a long time but when i do it it only last for a couples sec and i hit red line.

My bro told me to just sit there on red line but it dont sound right anyone can teach me how to do a long burnout.

long burnouts are pointless and a good way to waste away your 200$ a piece tires(after shipping, etc.)

The Tire manufacturers even tell you to do a short burnout. I always do no more than 3 seconds of burnout and that is plenty to pull a consistent good 60 ft time. V8 guys that do 10 second burnouts are just showing their redneck side showing off to friends, its useless and annoying at times.
