you should ask jinxproof how he does his, i think he puts his car in 3rd and revs it to like 9500 and lets all hell brake loose. ive seen many pics of his car with the smokiest of burnouts.

1. pull the e-brake all the way up

2. put the car in first

3. rev car up to redline(keep tapping the gas peddle till it get's up by ur redline)

4. drop the clutch(take ur foot of the clutch and step on the gas peddle, keeping the revs up by ur redline)

have fun, don't **** ur tranny or ur axles up

Is it okay if I dont have rear disc brakes? i mean, all i have is drums. Correct me if im wrong, but, when you pull the e brake, the drums are the ones being activated to hold the car in place right?

Drums actually hold better than discs on the handbrake. As the hub tries to turn it forces the linings against the drums.

if you put the e-brake on and burn out the only thing your gonna be smoking is your clutch(on totally stock), if your running street tires just drop the clutch to spin em a bit, clean the junk off, then go.

i get in the water and spin them over to get them wet.then pull out of the water,get on the two-step at 6000rpm and let her rip in second with the e-brake on.then try to keep it at about 7000rpm .when it trys to pull itself out,let go of the e-brake and pull up and stage.

any suggestions for cars (hatches) with gutted backs?
E-brake doesn't hold me anywhere. I just drag the back wheels with me, they're not moving, but I do.
Should I try to get the fronts spinning faster? Am I getting too much traction? I guess using 1st with drag radials might be spinning too slow.
Well, I answered my own question. Thanks

Pelican-the first gear is your probelm. Do your burnout in second and make sure to start in it the water.

for all of this doign a burnout in 2nd gear, it does no good for you if your car is basically stock even with I/H/E dont waste your time, just keep getting on and off your gas to keep the tires spinning and dont bounce off the rev limiter, also do it in 1st gear. IMO ofcourse.

I usually spin them over a few time in the waterbox then pull forward rev to 6 or 7k and dump the clutch in 1st with the handbrake engaged. I have a friend give me a thumbs up to make sure i'm not smoking my clutch, then i release the handbrake and smoke up to the staging lights. I've heard a lot of people say not to burnout on street tires but I have never seen any of them run a 2.0 60' on street tires either, my advice is to burnout no matter what kind of tires you run unless of course you run faster without burning out.
