Default can you do burnouts on your new stang?

l have tried to do burnouts but the car didnt do burnouts.. l started to smell clutch badly and l stopped. lm wont do burnout again but l just wanted to make sure if any of you had the same problem.. l believe comp. do not let wheels to move.. cuz l rev the engine untill 6k rpm and let the clutch off and the wheels didnt move even 1 inch. and l smelled the clutch.

I tried too and had no luck. I'm not a hotshoe driver though. I've seen it done before though for sure. The power going to the brakes is like 65/35 front/rear.

Um.. I have stock gearing and the stock Pirellis and my tires sometimes spin when Im backing up, thats how easily they spin.. its very very simple to burn these tires.. even in this Florida weather and with traction control on!

I'm geussing this guy is talking about doing a brakestand? I can burnouts all day long but I can't do a brakestand without killing it. Hell I can chirp the tires pretty good with TCS on.

Throw a procharger on there with about 15lbs (aww heck, go for 20lbs!) of boost...

Don't make any other changes... (stock tires, springs, LCA's etc...)

Floor it and drop the clutch - timing will be pretty irrelvant...

Then post that you cannot hookup at WOT

Shortly after that, post a question asking where to get a new motor, and transmission, and well basically a new front end, youll need one after the explosion sends parts flying all through your firewall. Hell may as well buy a new car [8D]
