Default Burn out question?

I heard there is a fuse that you can pull to allow a burn out. Is this true? I have a procharger and it seems like I cant get a good burnout at the track..And yes I have the traction control off..lol

its the brake light fuse, if you pull the right one your brake lights wont work, this bypasses nissans stupid burnout problem. make sure you put it back in though when you drive...

Will pulling this fuse alow you to power brake the car? I have never had a problem doing long burnout I just can't powerbrake the car.

There was a guy on here that made a switch that you plug into the fuse block. When you want to do a burnout, just flip the switch. When you are done, flip it back.

Traction control scares me. You don't have full control of what exactly the wheels do. The last thing I want is the car to apply the brakes/cut throttle depending on the TC system.
