Anyone ever do a nice smoke show with a 2.8 5spd? Any pics? And how long are you able to keep the tires spinning? Thanks guys. I did a small one tonight, but the tires can't stay spinning when I pop the clutch, they grab. Thanks guys

Do this -

Bring RPM up to 2000 rpm... then floor it, jump off the clutch, and hold the brakes slightly... you'll sit there spinning like no tomorrow!!

it also depends on your tires.
Mine were always good enough to grab traction when they were warm. Maybe 6-7 rev's and the rear end would squat and I would go.
