Default Couldn't do a 2nd gear burnout

The first time i tried it in 1st gear. Reved it up to about 5,000rpms and threw my foot on the brake. Smoked them without a problem, just that i was bouncing off the rev limiter. Then i tried it in 2nd. Did the same thing. The brake pedal started pulsing, the car shaking, and it stalled. Tried it again, but forgot to turn the traction control off. The third time the brake started pulsing right away, so i just let off. What's the deal? Did i just hit the brakes to hard? 1st gear burnout the car just sat there, the 2nd gear one it felt like the brakes couldn't hold the car.

Sorry about the other thread.
