Burnout

[NEWCHAPTER]

Just looking for the best technique, since its been awhile since I've the due to the weather

Using a line lock. roll into box, spin the tires and roll forward. Set LL and burn em'. MT ET drags like a pretty short burnout.

As above and I count... one thousand one... one thousand two ect.. I usually count to 4 or 5 once I have them spinning. If you think you need more heat then count longer. K.I.S.S

If your tires require a burnout, just do the minimum to keep the convertor from getting too hot.

If u do not have a linelock just power brake it. But, with alum. drums this is not good if the shoes are adjusted tight and you are burning them offf regularly...it will warp them.

Just so that I'm clear on the concept (you can tell I don't do this often),

1) you go around the water and then BACK into the damp part??

2) while in the damp part of box, spin the tires without LL??

3) ease off, idle forward, set LL, burn again ??

4) on the final burnout, what's the preferred way to end it? Feather off the gas, then release LL?
Or, release the line lock while still spinning?
Or something else?

here is what i do......

1.) pull up towards the burn out box (usally nervious lol)
2.) pull trew the water and give it a litte bit of gas NOT ENOUGH TO MAKE BOOST TOUGH.......and let out right away.
3.) pull forward a little bit so im not in the water but in the damp (or even a little farther some times) and set the Line Loc
4.)start to smoke the tires very easly and try my best not to make boost and let the car go into 2nd
5.) release Line Loc and roll forward hiting the gas usually alot harder then and thats when the smoke really starts to flow :d for me atleast......just make sure that you streer the car away from put people and the wall lol

Do you have slicks or streets? Streets you dont want ANY water on them.
