Default Peeling Out

hey guys just wanted to ask if anyone tried to peel out by slamming on the gas from a dead stop with a stock '67 289 V8 coupe? or would you have to press the brakes while pushing the gas then releasing the brakes?

~im not saying that im not going to do this to just because it looks/sounds cool.

park with one tire rested halfway on a curb ( preferably your passenger tire) rear of coarse. then pour a small amount of bleach on the ground in front of the tire. get in the car and while pressing on the break with minimal pressure, press firmly on the gas pedal. as it starts to spin slowly let off the gas and you will leave a nice black mark as well as a huge puff of smoke.

You might as well know how to do it right.

Once you are completed, get the car back in the garage and clean the rubber off the rear quarter befor your dad finds out you are i his car.

That's what this car is:

The only way it does anything like that is power braking it. When I am at a dead stop and hammer it, it goes 'chirp' and drives away. IF you look real close in the video I started power braking and as soon as I left of the brake the wheels stopped spinning. That was also accelerating at max throttle too


It's not as much fun to stomp the gas as my other one (but it is very reliable, a nice quiet, comfortable cruiser).

The other one (which I am posting a lot lately it seems)
