Marco Posted February 9, 2004 Share Posted February 9, 2004 After seeing Dude's burnout clip, I want to try a burnout to lol. I need some new tires soon anyway. What is the proper way to do it in a manual? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toyotasuprauk Posted February 9, 2004 Share Posted February 9, 2004 I don't want to do one (too scared of breaking something) but I don't blame you for asking as I haven't got a clue either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrick_Devlin Posted February 9, 2004 Share Posted February 9, 2004 Not sure how dude did it, but you might need a brake line lock kit! Either that or drive it gently upto a wall until the nose is resting on it and then nail it!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Laing Posted February 9, 2004 Share Posted February 9, 2004 Rev your car to about 5-6,000 revs, slip the clutch and when it starts to spin but also pull away slightly, put your left food (slightly) on the brake, that will make you stop and you can do a long burnout then......

osso Posted February 9, 2004 Share Posted February 9, 2004 for a manual you definitely need a brake line lock kit, Envy probably do them. its a switch you can flick on or off which only locks the front brakes and allows the rears to spin.. any chance on a group buy on the brake line lock kit? you could always stick ya car in first gear, rev it up to 6500 rpm then dump the clutch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldnt recommend slipping your clutch at 5-6000 revs otherwise you could easily burn out the clutch, the brake lock kit is the safer option IMHO.

MONKEYmark Posted February 9, 2004 Share Posted February 9, 2004 its not hard to do a burnout in an auto turn off all traction controls hold it on front brake hard stick in 1st and rev to 2000+ revs and the tyres will light up then move into 2nd gear. even easier with a torque convertor. you dont want to be doing it too much as you could break your gearbox or something else. it will heat your tranny fluid up and kill your box Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Getrag Posted February 9, 2004 Share Posted February 9, 2004 Well, the burnout sounds nice but cant get a pic. Any idea what avi/codec stuff i need? Cheers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Mani Posted February 9, 2004 Share Posted February 9, 2004 Few interesting burnout pictures here. This is when my car was stock about 6 years ago. Did this on a challenge from a friend. Not a very smart thing to do given that I was facing my neighbors living roomm on the other side of the wall. But Fun !!! http://www.geocities.com/jzatt/smoke_show.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dude Posted February 9, 2004 Share Posted February 9, 2004 Originally posted by MfS £150 to destroy some tires, doh!

Dude:flame Dev Got ya I've only been to a strip once, and then she broke doh! But I'll keep it in mind if I want to put some decent times down on a 1/4 mile Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Posted February 9, 2004 Share Posted February 9, 2004 Given that most of us have to order tyres in rather than buy them off the shelf, you don't have to waste your tyres, you just wait till you have to buy some then you have a week (on average) to keep lighting up your rears at every available opportunity. If you try donuts, don't burn out your PS pump as I did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crimbo Posted February 10, 2004 Share Posted February 10, 2004 Fella's, find a road or carpark with a slight gradiant on it. Park 1/2 way up the slope. pop her in 1st or 2nd, gently ease off the handbrake to slightly roll backwards. Raise the revs, lift the clutch and Robert's yer mothers brother! Flame-on! Have fun holding her on the slope or gently crawling 4ward zig-zaggin'. (Do not get too carried away coz u WILL shag summat up, Ha) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bromy Posted February 10, 2004 Share Posted February 10, 2004 Along the same line, How do you do donuts ? ____________________________________ nick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Posted February 10, 2004 Share Posted February 10, 2004 Donutting involves just spinning up the tyres and holding the wheel to one side on full lock, but DON'T hold the wheel hard over in all the excitement cos you will shaft the power steering pump. I've found the Supra does tend to understeer when donutting, so find as smooth a surface as possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordon F Posted February 10, 2004 Share Posted February 10, 2004 For FULL information on any of these stunts, including handbrake turns, just watch any old episode of 'The Sweeney' on UK Gold Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marco Posted February 10, 2004 Author Share Posted February 10, 2004 Ordered my tires today and they should be in tomorrow I didn't do a full burnout afterall But I did do a mini 'burnout' in the local tesco parkinglot. TC off, revved her up to 5000 drop the clutch and put some nice tiremarks there. (Didn't use the brakes) The first was 12 meter , the 2nd 15 meter I noticed my revcounter went up to 7500! Damn, my revlimiter is obviously not working.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
