    I was wondering if someone could post some information on how to do a burnout in a grandprix even though they are equipped with the pedal emergency break. . . . and i already know that we have weak transmissions and it is a bad idea but i would just like the know how

    TCS off, e-brake in, pedal into it to start the tires spinning, but back off the pedal a little as to not over-rev it. see if you can keep it consistently in 2nd gear and see how long you can run your tires before you get scared.

    when u say e brake in. u mean e brake pushed down . . .
    and when u say pedal into it u mean slightly push down on the accelerator at about 1-2 rpms????
    and when u say see if you can keep it consistently in 2nd gear u mean i should shift my car into 2nd gear. (ive seen on other sites that the car should probably be in 1st gear)

    Pour some oil on the front tires and ground, pull forward, prolly a few inches, on top of the oil puddles, Pop the trunk, e-brake on. Have a couple heavy buddies sit on the rim of the trunk. Pop it in 1st gear, tcs off. Start burning out. One you redline 1st year, shift manually into 2nd. Don't hit 3rd. Stay in 2nd. No tranny issues there. Just tire and RPM issues. Make sure you take a video and post the vid! Don't be a p***y lol

    1st question. what type of oil?
    2nd do u really even need oil or is it to increase smoke or is it to preserve tires? cuz i doubt it preserves tires.
    3rd i have subs in the trunk and there like 133+ do i really need bodies sitting in the trunk whether they be dead bodies?
    and im not a *****. i just love my car to much to hurt it. . . . :0)

    If you pour oil or any sort of substance like that on your tires then you've got some mental issues to take care of...that's ridiculous...or a deep pocket to be buying new tires every other burnout. If your friends are sitting in the trunk then your car isn't powerful enough to be doing a burnout if you need someone to hold it in place.

    Seriously...go park in a water puddle if anything...or the front of a speed bump...or put more mods on your car. Water won't ruin your tires, or finish on your paint...god I'd hate to see how awesome of a polish job OIL does your clearcoat...

    TCS off, trans in 1, push ebrake down and let it lock...then push it again as if you were to UNlock it but dont let it come back out and hold it on with your foot...use your other foot to get in the gas...once the tires break loose you can feather the throttle...don't bother shifting it until your done...then just put it into "D".

    lol good ****. but he said put people on the trunk because the ebrake wouldn't be powerfull enough or maybe the cars too light, im not sure but i didn't push my ebrake down a second time i pushed it once and kept it there and started to accelerate and my car was moving forward slowly little by little.
