Line lock, make the 80 dollar investment or whatever they cost, its a lot cheaper than fucked up rotors.

Put car in drive, gas pedal to the floor. You camaro should do a burnout very easily..

Line Locks are nice too. Plus when FWD guys come up and see it they're like WTF is that

Floor it holding the brake for a hair, then let off the brakes and steer.

I really like that line lock setup, btw. Another word of advice though, I would put the car in "D" (3rd) and not "OD" (4th) so not to burn it up. (Just to clarify what Buff had said previously.)

is it possible to install a line lock on a vehicle with ABS? I thought I read a warning against it.

You can get them at
www.slponline.com
www.thunderracing.com
www.tbyrne.com

I got it on mine...its ABS...not really a problem. There are other places to get them. I think I got mine from thunder. www.rapidmotorsports.com might have them too...They are worth it.

SLP had one FS back when I had my LT1. Check their website. Definitely worth the purchase, my friend lost the burnout contest at SLP Day '04 because his rotors caught fire and he had to stop.

ABS should not be a problem. My car still has ABS. I looked into buying some of those kits, but I did everything myself and saved probably $80.00. It's good to know how to double flare :0

The Trans will shift into second if you have it in first, and hit the limiter. It is programmed to do it so it doesn't kill the engine. I do it every now and then to show my friends, they're like wtf..

The SLP is a slick kit, a true bolt-on that requires no extra parts.
