A burn is done using the e-brake.

About racing.. well its something like that.. Hold the clutch, put in 1st, rev till desired speed, then drop (not sudden, this is where all tech/methods apply) the clutch..

I don't have much experience at all, just tried it one time. But what I did that worked, wuz held clutch in and held gas in where it was at about 3000 rpm. It was really loud, but when it turned green, just let the clutch out pretty fast, and listen as u burn some serious rubber. I didn't try it on a hill, i'm not sure u could on a hill. And I haven't tried keeping it above 3000 rpm on the start, but I will this week, and I'll get back to ya on that. Later tightcamaro, tightdelsol, tight?????.........;)

With an oem clutch, you need to be very careful at which rpm you launch.

Too high and you'll hear a shattering/blast sound..
Then you're car wont be going anywhere..


:no:

in a RWD car you need to hold the brake down with your heel and and put the toes on the gas pedal. then press down on the clutch, hold down the brake then get on the gas some till you know its gonna catch and let off the clutch and start spinnin......cant use ebrake in a rwd car, cuz ebrake will lock up the rear wheels :P
