What year is your car? On any 99+ you must first turn off traction control, twist your left foot a bit so that you can press the clutch and the brake at the same time. Rev the engine to about 4 grand dump the clutch and hold the brake. The higher you rev the engine, after the burnout begins, the more smoke you will make. ...

my opinion is just a tad different then 4.6's well on my car 96 gt...if all i wanna do is like a bigg old burnnout but like actually start moving down the road while burrnin them up...ill just rev up like 2500 pop the clutch half way slam the gas while poppin it the rest of the way....till redline...powershift real quuick to second gear and i can generally keep them peelin through the bottom of 3rd pretty well...now i am a person who is very against powerbraking cars and i just flat out wont do it in my mustang...however i did it in my camaro once or twice...unless you have linelocks its not a wise thing to do either. However the way i would do a burnout if i wanted to like sit in one spot kinda an just smoke the hell outa the tires...now 4.6 says one foot on the gas an one foot on clutch and brake...the way i do it is one foot clutch..an one foot gas an brake...basically becuz the pressure on the brake should be kinda constant and the gas pedal is gonna change a bit but its only gonna be like wot and off really...the clutch takes a lil more sensitivity and more pressure to push it down (ya kinda have to work the clutch a lil bit) i dunno this is just how i do things...not right or wrong way everyone burns em up differently lol

this is how I always do them.. (in a manual)

I start off stopped, holding the clutch in. I rev the engine up between 3500-4000 and at this point I dump the clutch and quickly move my left foot to the break and apply enough break to keep the car from taking off. I rev the car all the way up and hold it and just let it burn rubber after awhile i just let my foot off the break and let it go

here's a small movie, not very good though

Not bad Christie. I would've kept on the brake a little longer for a little more smoke. I can't wait til next spring so the guys and I can take vids of our burnouts.

no problems here...
I just use light brake pressure and roll into the throttle. Having original gatorbacks probably helps...

yeah I wish I had too.. I hadn't ever done a burnout with those tires and they are my everyday tires and I didn't want to burn them too bad lol. I usually do them on drag radials which I don't care if they have hardly any tread on lol

w00t that first pic is sweet!

here a step by step of what i do, like christies, but step by step



1 turn traction controll on
2 hold the clutch in while revving relativley high (4k mabey?)
3 dump the clutch and press the brake in
4 have it so the brakes are JUST enough so it keeps the car still
5 hold gas and brake in that position to desired smoke
6 let off gass and go!

Dumping the clutch just mean letting go of it. When you car bogs if you were drag racing it would fall on its face and go nowhere. Basically it means the car looses its power momentarily and it might turn off on you. (thats the best way i can explain it. )...burnouts will not have a big impact on your brakes as long as you don't do too much of it and you do it correctly.
