What you need is some real power behind you..
Or put your foot to the floor in N and drop it in D.
Post pics of parts in a bucket LOL

Personally I dont get the fascination with burnouts. its just super hard on parts.
ya want the car to hook and go...let the other guy spin and leave him sitting there.
a dead hook is harder on parts then spinning tires...

never had a problem spinning tire in my 91 l98. get the car moving slightly and stand on it hard. should light them right up

From this post I'm guessing younger owner with limited driving experience and finances. Older car... (they never have hidden issues) Going for massive Burnouts seems like a great idea, what can go wrong


I love this old video with a new ZO6

here's a round taillight C4
See 80s corvettes can do burnouts Have fun
