Re: Quick Question
On my ride I use a line lock and it is great for getting the meats hot and sticky. It locks up the front brakes while releasing the rear.

You'll wear out your tires more than your brakes doing burnouts. You have brakes on each tire.

Re: Quick Question
Even in a V6, dropping the clutch often is a good way to ruin the transmission and rear end. A line lock is something that would clamp the front calipers only, allowing the rears to still spin freely. If you are just driving around trying to spin your tires, you're just begging for a ticket.

Re: Quick Question
Go to the mall and find an open side of the parking lot around 8pm. Cut the wheel hard to the left and floor it. Then after about 2 circles turn hard right and repeat. Then immediatly get the hell outta there before the fuzz come. Try this a few times and you'll be a pro by the end of the night.
LOL just kidding
Be careful on the street though. The rear end will kick out and you'll lose it if you go too fast around a corner. Please don't kill yourself.
