When you say fabbing, do you mean bending new brake lines?

If that's the case, I would definitely be able to do that.

Yes. Doesn't matter whether it's a manual or auto. A line lock is a good idea to anyone who ever takes their car to the track.

If you have a line lock, you press the brake pedal in and hold it then flip the activation switch for the line lock. Once it's activated give it gas and the car will hold without you holding down the brake pedal.

APPLY brakes. Hold brake pedal down and flip up the toggle switch, BURN RUBBER, then flip switch down to release brake presure.

yes.

Start car, put car in gear, push brake and flip lock switch. Release brake and punch throttle...tires light up, people are impressed, women start throwing their clothes at you, flip the lock switch off and roll out of the burnout...
