I am just wondering how everyone smokes there tires weather they do wheel stands or just rev high and drop the clutch? I would just like to curious, I am still new to my stang and am wondering how exactly to peel out leaving a nice trail of smoke.
As you are wondering you got me wondering???
What is this WHEEL STAND business you speak of? Is this some new fangled term. I am 35 years old and never heard POWER BRAKING called that. (Wheel stand)= Launching the car and lifting the front tires clear off the ground.

I think you mean BRAKE STAND. (still never heard of that in my 35 years with 25 of them around cars)
When ever in doubt check the Urban Dictionary it helps us OMF's keep current with with the younger generation.

rev and pop the clutch.....if you press the brake, you will only
be shortening the life of your brake pads....

Brake pads are cheaper than a new cluch. and if your car is stock its hard to hold a nice long burnout
