Help with burnouts!!
I am such a noobe. I am putting my new Vedestriens on tomorrow, so I was trying to get rid of the tread on the on PS2s. I just can't get the good white smoke burnout. Car just wants to hook and go? I rev to 3k and dump the clutch a try to hold brake. Should I dump the clutch at higher rpms? I pretty sure I don't have hp issues, just driver issues. It was pretty easy in my TA.
By the way - I did some faster hard turns with AH off and AH on - it does make a difference.

some guys around here drop it at 4000 rpm's in 2nd gear. Then tap onto the brakes.

Different brand of tires produce different sound, color and amount of smoke too....
