just floor it and hope the throttle responds before your car starts rolling...Really tuff in a sixer...redass has a GT.
you guys can't break traction by just flooring it?
try this, hold your brake down with your left foot and give it gas with the right, and just as the motor starts to overpower the brakes, let off the brakes. if you can't peel out doing this, then I don't think you can peel out. DO NOT NEUTRAL DROP IT YOU WILL DESTROY YOUR TRANNY
you have to remember too that we have open differentials...

Seriously, though, I've never try to burn rubber too much...tires are expensive!

so you can do a massive one wheel burnout doing what I said. can you do proper donuts without a t-lok?

well...our V6's have open diff. which only allow one wheel to get power if one loses traction. a t-lock "locks" em both to allow for both wheels to get power all the time.

A way you can do it from what I hear but is not very same is put it in nutreul rev it up to 3-4 thousand RPM and pop it in gear.

Or start going in reverse then pop it in drive real quick. I wouldnt do these to my car personally.

Third option

Press the brake and gas at the same time.


Or you can try getting some oil and put them on the tires before you do it hehe.
This is just my opinion, but dont do any of that.
I saw a video one time where a guy put a food tray under one of his tires, and took off fast and turned the wheel and he started doing donuts. I'll try to find the link for it.
Well I just remembered its AWD. So you cant do this I guess.
