Default Burnout in an M6

I feel like a real newbie asking this, but how do you do a burnout in an M6? I dont have a line-lock ( and I know it will make it easy)

Any tips?

Or if your foot is big enough you can hold the brake with your right heel and gas with your right toe, while using your left for the clutch. This method will keep the car straiter.

I agree, 2nd gear, 5grand, dump the clutch and just move your foot to the brake. The car wont move an inch.

i would have to agree with the above post about not doin it in 2nd gear, "that is if you have a STOCK clutch that is fairly wore down" trust me i found this out the hard way, stock ls1 clutches are junk, if you're gonna do it i suggest doing it in like a puddle of water or something, that way its a little easier on your tires, an you don't have to rev the engine up so high that you bounce off the rev limiter---(rev to like 3500 dump the clutch, get your tires spinning, then move your foot to the brake an apply firm pressure an work the gas keeping your RPM's around 4500 to 5000---smoke em as long as you like then ease off the brake pedal an lay a patch of smokey rubber
