Has anyone who has there car already done any sick Burnouts or Spinouts? Im dying to see what the Z is capable of, but when i read in SCC (the Z cover issue) that the EBS Distribution makes it hard to do burn outs, (so they had to cut the line for the cover) I got a little worried. Anyone yet? Let us know how it was...were you impressed? How long did you go/spin for and how much smoke?

 

I think JmanZ rode with a guy that got some good ones going, but can't remember where I saw it.

 

I have done 2 donuts. Each lasted about 5-10 seconds. It was awesome. I got out of the car and there was massive smoke...took over a minute for all the smoke to clear. And of course the parking lot has those memorable tire marks.

 

Uuuhh.. I guess I don't understand why burnouts are cool??

 

Sorry for the ignorance but how exactly do you execute a burnout? And while doing it, what can you damage in your car?

 

your tires?!?!

 

If you turn off the TCS/VDC, you can smoke the tires as much as you want! I did a HUGE one (bigger than I intended) and the back end slid around; it would be easy to do donuts. Smoke'em up!! (SCC was trying some weird slide that looks good in photos, where you apply heavy brake and throttle at the same time, which you will never do in real life.)

 

Zboy, to do a sitting burnout, Yank the hand brake up, Rev to about 5Krpm, dump the clutch, watch em go. (Power Braking)
To do a spinout, just...uh...spin. Fast. heh.
