Yes, I know this is a rookie question, but how do you do a burnout without moving forward?

 

for the auto you push the brake and gas at the same time, but do not forget to turn off the traction lock, the standard i do not know

 

Hmmm looks like power braking to me ....... my 93 t-bird does that

 

For a manual you put it in gear, clutch in- rev up a little bit dump the clutch and quickly move the clutch foot (Left foot) over to the brake to hold the car from going forward, while simultaneously getting on the gas to keep the car from stalling. Don't completely floor the car because it will bounce off the limiter and you will look stupid...

 

He is using a line lock...

 

I have a manual..what's line lock?

Once I let the cluitch out and step on the brake doesn't that lock up the rear tires too? I'll be burning up my back brakes won't I?

 

I saw this one too.

Yep.. that's Ron right after he installed his line locks. My line locks test burnout vid is in my signature.

 

The braking is done mostly up front, so your fronts will be locked and the backs will continue to spin (RWD).

 

judging by the YouTube username, he's a TMS member (94Tbird) who has a custom made line lock system.. that's how he's doing it

 

line locks are cheating

 

Pretty sweet car, though!

 

Yes, thats the point of the line lock. You press down the brakes then engage the Lock which will only affect the front brakes, letting the rears spin freely until you want to drive off then you disengage the Line Lock and you are off to the races.

 

Holy crap, that's my driveway...lol
nice one ron!!!

 

or use right foot on brake and gas simultaneously... that's how I go about it, anyway. see avatar for results.

 

Seems like your method works just fine
