VMF Posted April 13, 2004 Share Posted April 13, 2004 well let me start with simple suggestion: LS is not the proper car for this kind of stuff and neither is stock GS. if you do neutral drop like you describe you will have yo do expensive transmission rebuild after couple of tries. ive seen people pickin up transmission planetary gears after they tried this. also bearings in your shaft bearings might give up as well. your car is pretty old and you dont know what kind of maintanence it had and what parts were changed so in your place i would not risk it. theoretically yes, you can do burn out but not to the point then your tires catch fire. i dont know what kind of burnout you have to do for your tires to catch fire. in my experince when people go to racing track the do a lil burn out on a special place with lots of spilled water just to heat up the tire rubber for better traction during race. but DONT DO IT AT HOME on ur car otherwise you will have to pay a lot of $ for some expensive repairs......

GSsoldier Posted April 13, 2004 Author Share Posted April 13, 2004 thanks for replying so quickly i have another question too is it considered a burn out if th tires spin with out traction when its rainning? will that mess up the car as oppose to burning out on dry land?

VMF Posted April 13, 2004 Share Posted April 13, 2004 nah, this is called spinning and if you do it in the reasonable amount should not do any harm.it happens to me to and i enjoy giving some extra acceleration on a rainy or snowy road to give my car a lil slide. but i do it on an empty parking lot. just dont rape your car, know its limits and everything will be fine.
