just keep giving it gas and they're gonna keep spinning. its not that hard of a concept to understand.

my thoughts exactly...

it depends on a few things though, such as how shitty or bald your old tires are, as well as the compound of the tires. your power output has a lot to do with it, as well as the surface that you're on...etc etc
 
You can...

Hold the clutch,
Put it in first
Rev the engine
Release the clutch, (pop it) in order to break the tires loss
Quickly slight hold the brakes. (Only enough that the front breaks just hold on)
The rear brakes won’t really apply much if at all

do it in the middle of a big empty parking lot, and turn the steering wheel all the way to the left..
wont that be a donut?

if you are burning off your tires you might want to get new rear brakes also. if you think about it you are holding the brake pedal and are still getting rear brakes but your transmission is over powering the rear brakes and just cooking them.

well your rear brakes barely do any breaking at all except when using the ebrake. that's why when you do big brake kits, they only go on the front because it's pointless to upgrade the rears.

Just dump the clutch, like stated above, press your foot slightly on the brake immediately after dumping the clutch. sit there and smoke em until they pop or until your rear diff goes (if you're low on fluid) have fun! :thumbsup
 
for your resonable question

while holding the clutch rev engine to red line and make sure you have it in second gear and let go of the clutch and walla you have a masive buuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuurrrrrrrrrnnnnnnnnn out. :thumbsup
 
Start off in a small puddle and put bleach on your tires.

haha thanks for all the info i pretty much killed them yesterday still have lil bit of tread left,picked up some decent meshies at a junkyard this weekend for 56bucks waiting to get tires hopefully within the next week.thx again
 
Try this trick, used to do it to my old gutless trucks.. put in reverse go about 5 mph, then put in first, rev up and pop the cluth and then put your foot on the brake and feather the gas so you don't hit the rev limiter, unless you wanna shift, then it takes actual.. "skill"?.. heel to toe my friend. But if you just wanna use first gear do it the way i said.. easy as hell

WEEEEEEEEE, i burned my old right tire down to the metal thread hell yes
 
Yeah, since its a 5-speed, go in reverse to about 5 mph, pull it out of gear, foot on clutch, put it in 1st, rev it to about 5k, and drop the clutch.

BTW, you have a stock diff? If so, you really only burn 1 tire anyways.

Do it Kevin Harvick style, burn em till they pop! Just make sure you stop quick once you pop em, or else you will tear up your wheel, fender, splash guards, brake lines, and a whole bunch of other stuff.
