Do you have a manual or auto? With an auto just slam on the brake as hard as you can and then floor the gas. Maybe someone with a manual can explain how to do it.....
with a manual...you can....hold in the clutch, rev to 3-4k, let the clutch fly with ur left foot and quick grab the brake, this will hold it thier and yu can do ur burnout without moving....or you can hold ur left foot ont he brake, and the right heel on the clutch and right toes on the gas, slowly let out the clutch and give it gas till it spins...I have done both, and find the 2nd of the two a little harder, option number 1 is really easy

The best way to burnout in a manual is to pump the brakes to build up brake pressure then rev to 5500 rpm and dump the clutch and then slam the brake. Hold the RPM's untill the hides are nice and smokey and then ease off the brake and gas and you will slowly creep froward to the staging line.

The best way is to install a brake line lock on the front brake lines. Hit the brakes, depress the lock button, release the breaks, put the power to it. The front brakes will stay on till you release the button. Saves on the rear brakes and allows higher speed burn outs to get the drag radials of sloicks nice and sticky.

The way my pedals are spaced it's relatively easy to to put the left side of my right foot on the brake pedal, and the right side of my right foot on the gas pedal; left foot works the clutch....
"...or you can hold ur left foot ont he brake, and the right heel on the clutch and right toes on the gas, slowly let out the clutch..." Think about it for a minute......I'd sure like to watch that technique...

mmmm... nothing like the smell of fried clutch...Michael Yount said:
don't forget all this is based on the idea that you've already rolled thru the waterbox.
if you are running fullsized front tires, do everyone a favour and drive around the waterbox, and back in to wet only the rears. if you are runninf skinnes, driving thru the box is fine.
pull the rears out of the water, and onto the damp portion of the burn box.
pull it into 2nd gear and wait for the burn box director to signal it's time to go.
grab second gear, dial up 5000rpm dump the clutch and grab a little brake.
It takes very very little brake to hold the car... you do not need to mash the brake.
watch both the tach and your speedo.
if the mph starts to fall and the rev's are not, then, you are cooking your clutch.
Hold steady throttle, bouncing rev's wil tear up the drivetrain, especially the trak loc.
when the rev's start to drop your tires are warm... let off the brake, then get out of the gas.
roll up and prestage
Have fun.

It's not very hard. The biggest issue is modifying a T into your brake lines. Do some searches about Linelock, a few guys have posted "How To's" on the project.
