Use some pledge around the wheelwells and onto the back of the car to keep rubber from sticking to the paint.

line lock is best, but when i didnt have line lock id put the shifter in 2nd, and go buck wild. let it shift into 2nd and hold it at like 4g. line lock would obviously be best however.

I drop it in first, as soon as i hit 5500 RPM I shift quick and give it gas into second, leave it there till about 6,000(hehe) and when Im done I shift into 3rd and roll out. Ive done some bad *** burnouts before.
