I was thinking that maybe for the photos they use in the magazine they use a different technique. I remember that lot of 1/4 mile racer use a front brack locking thingy to lock their front brakes. My friends brother has this switch that he just flips on his mustang and it just locks his front brakes for him and he just does the burnout.
So maybe what we need to do is heel toe sort of. Hold the brake down with the heel and push down on the throttle with the toe :)
just guessing

: Ok, it's become an obsession. Ever since Robert on the Z3 board claimed that he can smoke his M-Roadsters rear tires at will, I've had to try this.
: Yes, it's juvenile, but just once I'd like to achieve a nice smoky burn-out. Problem is, my '00 M-Coupe won't oblige. Without torturing the clutch too often (with traction off, of course) I've tried dumping the clutch, slipping the clutch at 4,500 and 6,00. Nothing. The tires squeal, then hook up.
: I've seen the magazine covers. I know it can be done.
