Default spinning tires??

ok here is a question i kinda need answered the correct way cause i get many opinions. If i hold the break down in my mustang and gas it so my rear tires spin and i sit in one spot spinning til tires smoke but dont sit there for no more then 20 sec what does this do? i think it just wears down my tires and brakes am i right or wrong?

You just burn 20 sec's worth of tire and brakes. if you have ABS I dont favor the idea of smoking your tires. You ABS takes a beating. And to replace that it can cost more than your tires. Get Roll control.Linelock $75 to 125 and then you wont hurt your brakes.. or your abs

You don't have to do a breakstand, just let it sit around 2 or 3 grand and then let the clutch out fast and hammer it, should get a nice burnout/smoke show. Also you shouldn't really need to do a burnout all the time or anything, even if you race, unless they're drag slicks burnouts don't do much.
