we put down a little water but i don't think it really helped.
rev limiter is around 9500rpm i believe, i bounced it quite a few times when i was driving and when i did the first burnout

So what's going on in that burnout, somebody break it down "the anatomy" of the procedure. The 3rd break light was on, so what's up with that, parking brake or what.....????

Wow, some of you guys might be better off driving station wagons from the looks of it.
I never thought I would see someone flamin for doing burnouts on a sport car enthusiast board!
Keep driving them hard Vosko other wise how will some of these guys know where their cars breaking points are.
I guess you suggest that we all do the speed limit too huh?
LOL

I bought a sports car to go through the twisties and autox. If I wanted to drag race and do big burnouts I would have spent the extra $3k and bought a Cobra and been able to do some impressive burnouts.

Vosko,
nice work, I'm willing to say I'm in the 95% who can't becuase I never tried. But I don't mind watching others do it. I remembered the first Japan comerical had a burnout in the RX8 doing pirouettes. For those who don't remember, the link is below. Maybe when my tires are getting low I'll give it a try. It's not that I'm a tire hugger it that I don't want to buy another set of 18's. Watching the video is free.

my FD was built to do EVERYTHING well burnout, drag race, drift, road race.........honestly it can do everything. an rx8 can be the same way. drag racing is the most punishing you can do to a car. if it doesn't break drag racing chances are it won't break doing the other things
