Well the other day, I got behind an older mustang. While we were driving I turned left, and the mustang in the other lane either slammed on his brakes or pulled his e-brake for a second and did a cool driving burnout. Anyone know for sure how this could be done? He was going about 20-30 mph. And the cool thing was his burnout was on the white line..so alls I could smell was burning rubber.

2nd gear, high rev clutch dump?

Add aton of HP and torque !!!
I used to do it on my bike by just burning clutch, accelerating while quicly depress and release the clutch lever just enough for the clutch to slip a little bit, never tried it on my car.
Right now I can do that after installing the SC, in 1st gear I can hit the gas at at any rpm and spin the wheels (TC off), depending on road conditions I can do that in 2nd too.

i think quickly stepping on the brakes would help too, since that transfers the weight of the car onto the front wheels, giving less traction to the rear wheels. then if he rev'd it up and dumped the clutch in like 2nd gear i suppose he could burn out like you said. And i doubt that he used the handbrake because that would still allow the front wheels to keep turning so it wouldnt transfer the weight as much as using the normal brakes on all four wheels

Burnouts are freaking scary on a bike. I had a Honda Knighthawk 750 and managed to get the front wheel in the air once ona dump. Scared the beejeezus out of me. Man! I miss that bike. I think it was a 10 or 111/4 bike.

i used to thrash a CB750F that I had awhile back,
burnouts were just something to do, didn't
think much about it.

My 1975 400 triple (with chambers) does a burn-out in 1st without clutch slip...just peg it at 4000, andwhen it gets to 6100RPM, it comes on the pipe!!

Well my friends 68 Mustang can break em loose like that just flooring it at about 20-25 and its an auto. Also his dads 69 Mach 1 can do it in 3rd but he's got 625 hp. It must be an old car thing. My friends dads 66 Vette can do it easily in 2nd also.

I do it by cornering in first, about 15-20 mph and then flooring it. It'll drift away nine out of ten times just like that... fun fun fun
