Default stalling the car up

now when u are about to race and the other guys are asking a million questions about ur car and then they ask about a converter.... i know u can flash it but i was wondering if this would work.... put ur line lock on and rev it up to 1200 or 1500 and then quickly flip the swtich on and off so ur tires spin a little.. would that work????

I'm kind of confused too...so you want to flip the switch on when it's already on? What are you trying to do?

no im saying that you should stall the car up to w/e you want and then with your line lock you turn it off so your front breaks let loose and ur back tired will start to spin.... im pulling this out of my *** im just wondering if you would be able to hustle this way

Why would letting your front brakes loose make the back tires spin? The rears will never be locked, so all you would do is sit there and burn the back tires.
