Lightbulb Burn Out?

How is it possible for me to do a burn out? Everytime I try and I dump the clutch and hammer the break the tire spins for a lil then I'm just sitting there watching my rpm just drop. Does anyone have any info on what I have to do or install so my car can do a burn out?????????

Turn off your VDC/Traction Control. Why do you want to do burn outs?

You don't need to "hammer the break". Just rev it up & pop the clutch. It'll burn out. Set your $700.00 bucks aside for those new rear tires. .

Sounds like a BA (Brake Assist) issue.

BA is always ON regardless of VDC switch status.

Basically, it reads both brake and gas are being depressed and interprets that as panicking driver trying to stops. It then takes over and cut throttle while applying maximum brake force...
