Yes, just don't push the brakes any harder than it takes to keep the car still. Remember, you are having to overpower the rear brakes ability to hold the car still when power braking.

Ya and if that doesnt work.... Just jab the brakes to get them spinning then jump back on the brakes to keep the car from rolling.

Off the subject a little but I was talking to this guy at the golf course the other day who has an ls7 Corvette. He was saying how in third gear at 50 mph he can blow off the tires just by stomping on it.

I would love to have that ability. In the Camaro and my old '56.

You would need his power and the weight of his car. 505 hp LS7 and 31,xxx lbs. Or just power and weight ratio.

Invest in a linelock kit if you're gonna be doing burnouts. Burnouts are very hard on your driveline and rear brakes

i always found it easier to just hold the brake down and step in the gas..maybe thats the reason i need new brakes on my mustang
