WOW!~this has been an interesting read so far! Everyone has an opinion and here is mine, I say you are driving a high HP sports car and if you don't use that power every so often, why have it? Just to putt around to the supermarket? or OLD folks retirement home? Sell your vette and buy a Ford if you are just going to drive around without any power! OR live a little and have FUN! with the best American sports car made! To the OPS original question, add a little extra air to the rear tires, that will make them spin even more.

Really you think??
Sometimes replies on CF are well..... Just inane.
Make a comment saying let the OP put his hair down only to have a member ding me like I need a drool cup. Hmmm I always wear a seat belt, do you often drive around with your tin foil hat????
I'm 58 and I like to occasionally do a burnout-nothing stupid just leave em smelling rubber. It makes the wife squeal and gets you a better kick than a Starbucks triple shot hazelnut latte. So just try to loosen up and let the OP have a little fun.
I don't do it all that often but when I do - I always make sure I'm in a position to make sure no one can be hurt - and no cops are around - as I jump on it and put a smile on my face. The key being do the burnout right
and make sure no one gets hurt.
Obviously this doesn't mean line it up in a big crowd and take a chance that you loose control and drill into the crowd as I occasionally see done on YouTube (that's what is irresponsible).

Funny......
I was in OC Md. this weekend for the hotrods. There were burnouts galore!!! with 99% done without endangering lives, lol.
But.... there were the Mustangs Ricers and PU trucks, driven mostly by kids, that were just plain out of control, grabbing 3 gears in a posted 40 mph with spectators on either side of the road. Scary. I hope no one made the news.
