How to do a burnout......
Well, a while ago I tried doing some burnouts with my friend. He has a 2000 Civic with CAI and cat-back. I'm auto. Anyways, we werent positive about how to do a burnout, so basically he just let out the clutch at around 4000 or maybe higher, then pulled up the e-brake. I torque braked, then pulled up my e brake as I started moving. However, neither of us was able to stay in one place and get any smoke. The cars just went forward like it was their business. I have videos of it all too. So what are we doing wrong? In the one video we recorded of my car, my front wheels spin just the right amount to make it look like the wheels arent moving at all, its real cool.
Plus my car sounds sooo nice compared to his. Can anybody host the videos? Theyre nothing special...... So should we have pulled up the e-brake before getting on the gas? Is it possible both of out e-brake cables or something isnt working 100%? I know my e-brake works under normal conditions. Any tips? I basically want a video similar to Eric Wong's...... Oh, and dont tell me to put bleach down or anything else even more stupid. This is bad enough for my car.

How to do a Burnout in an Auto:
1. Put the car into 1st gear.
2. Pull the e-brake up and hold tight
3. WOT
4. When it gets close to redline let out a little to lower the RPMs but still spin then give it some gas. Keep repeating that.
That should work. I had a lot of practice with the rental car I had.
oh yea and if anyone here or anyone you know happens to run across a used '02 Grand Am auto from Enterprise DO NOT even think about buying it. lol

Oh, and I love this... "Oh, and dont tell me to put bleach down or anything else even more stupid." That takes the dumb post of the day award! What you're doing is so much worse for your car than bleach could ever be... if you want smoke, use bleach/water/antifreeze but don't think you're not hurting your car because you're not using them.

I rented a chevy malibu recently, tried the neutral drop and it killed the rpms before it went into gear...
On top of that, if you tried to rev the motor out of gear it would limit to 3500 and bounce there...

To do a burn out in an auto just
Pull up the e-brake
Put it in first
Foot on the brake all the way
Foot on the gas to about 2000 RPM
Foot off brake and at the same time go WOT
You will sit there and smoke them off for as long as you want.
When the RPM's get to high you can shift into 2nd if you want and it will still smoke.

So can anybody tell why my car is dragging? Is it because I didn't pull the e brake up soon enough....like before I hit the gas? I'm guessing my friend (w/ stick) should also just keep the e brake up to begin with. Will doing a simple burnout ie, no brake torquing hurt my tranny that much? I thought most of the stress was from TBing...And no, I would never try a neutral drop...thats too far.
Im guessing nobody wants to host my "awesome" videos.....

If you can, put some water down on the aera where the front tires will rest. Pull the Ebrake up all the way, and get on the gas. It wont hurt your car as much as doing it in all dry, and you can get it smoking after a few seconds.

for auto u most definitely need to get the ground wet, where the front tires are. leave the ebrake up, put the car in first gear, brake torque a little bit, let off brake, mash the gas, and that should get it going. once it gets going, i keep turning the steering wheel left and right to keep car from moving forward for any reason, and watch the revs, once the wheels start spinning itll hit redline real fast, just careful not to let it bounce off the limiter.

Do tires have anything to do with this? Cause I have the same problem. I can get mine going on slick or wet surfaces but it just takes off dragging the locked up rear tires. I'm thinking the tires have too much grip and are pulling it off.

I'll never understand what is so fascinating about a burnout? It's not a massive display of power because nearly any car can do a burnout. Simply do like they do at the track, put down water, roll thru, brake on gas, e-brake up, WOT, release brake, spin. Whoop-de-doo. I've watched 120hp Accord autos do burnouts at the track and then run a 17.5. My car does mid 14s and I've never done a burnout at the track or EVER. I drive around the water, rev up to 3000rpms, release the clutch, spin the tires for a split second, I'm ready.
Extended burnouts are bad news, especially for autos. Don't do it. An automatic tranny is just a hydraulic pump. Sitting in one place while going thru 1st and 2nd pushes the tranny temps to critical levels. Next thing you know, a clutch pack explodes spreading it guts throughout the entire tranny. You're tranny is then offically done.

and watching weak cars do burnout is fun! my friend had a 92 accord, and he could get lots of smoke.....by popping the clutch at 5000!

The only reason for doing a burnout is if you are at the track and have slicks. Heating up slicks will help traction dramatically. The only reason to burnout with street tires is to clean off any dirt or rocks, AT THE TRACK, like Dave said, spin a little to clean them off.
Burning out/heating up street tires wont do jack, only puts unneccesary stress on the differential/transmission...so dont do it

I would suggest...
I suggest that you slowly pull up to a large, brick or concrete wall. Get close enough so that the front bumper is just barely touching the wall. Then pop it in first and mash on the gas. Your tires will spin, and the car will not go anywhere.
