Default Burnout dilemma

When I get off the clutch to do a burnout, the RPMs dip down for a few seconds (weird) like its going to stall, and then fly back up. Is this normal? Thanks.

They're probably dipping when it starts to engage and then increasing once the tires start spinning. I'd say it's normal.

are ya burning out on wet or dry pavement?? you are getting revs up then dumping the clutch then natrually the friction of the tires and road will slow down your rpms
