line lock burn outs are boring to watch, they serve there purpose at the track and that is it IMO

I agree, linelock burnouts aren't as cool but they do save more money than they cost to install. I am currently on the original back brakes, there's no telling how many sets I would have gone through without the linelocks.

LOL.....back in the 70s we used clorox

what you got to do is find a nice open spot where you can practice...rev you car to about 4k, dump the clutch and press (hard) with you left foot the brake, and hold it there for a while...that should be the easiest way to get a burnout IMO

You can do a more precise rolling burnout with linelocks, just step half way down on the brake pedal before you set the line locks and voila! You have half breaking power to the front. If you don't want to move, then you stand on that pedal before you set the locks.

They really aren't worth the trouble unless you go to the track often. One of mine is leaking, so i can do a tight dounut while doing a burnout.
