RE: doing burn outs
Ok, newbie...there will be no name calling in the forums. Second, why do the burn out...a non pi, automatic car is not much faster than 60% of cars on the road...just be careful or you will be looking at more money in repairs than the car is worth.
Sorry I need to read closer: Seems like a nice car, just be careful...driveline parts are still expensive

If you want to do burnouts in empty parking lots thats fine its you're car, but when u start doing them in traffic dont come crying when you lose you're liscense for smashing someones car or hurting someone.

Its not crowning or one axel is shorter than the other, its because of the torque being imparted to the car's body through the drivetrain. Its the same reason on a drag suspension you put the air bag in the right rear spring.

Thread was over a long time ago. He even provided the solution, if you REALLY wanted to go to such extremes to solve the problem.

umm...dumping the clutch from 3500-4500 is a bad idea without a built rear...you will end up breaking something eventually....and your clutch is going to get toasted....i wouldnt do more than 2500-3000 tops

with a line lock, just put your brakes on, flip the switch then the front brakes keep pressure until you flip the switch off...no more standing on the brakes and ruining your rear rotors, just let out the clutch and get on the gas like normal
