For a burnout, roll into waterbox and stop with rear tyres sitting in the water. Both feet in. You've already set all traction control etc to OFF. Apply throttle steady at say 6000 RPM, select second gear. Drop clutch and apply brakes lightly.

That was fun hunting you down towards the end of the drag strip. You were the gazelle while I was the hungry lion looking for his next meal (alpha male). |

Beginners are all about ET. As you get more experienced you begin to understand and appreciate the actual racing. There is a lot more to it than just ET.

Byron mate I was just being silly about it, I have a long documented distaste for drag racing automatic transmissions, I prefer the purist challenge of drag racing a manual tranny.
The reality is you can have fun drag racing any kind of car, the important thing is to enjoy yourself.
