How bad are Burnouts?

XxstarspyXX · March 1st, 2011, 05:51 PM

Burnouts are obviously bad for the car considering you strain them, i was wondering if i do a burnout like once a month for like 6 seconds how bad that'd be?

Thanks

real bad man, like terrible. 6 seconds once a month is like 1 min 12 seconds a year..and our cars our no good for over 1 minute a year.

its really just bad for your tires.... I wouldnt really worry about messing your car up... as long as you dont burn out everywhere lol

Only problem is the build up of rubber on your quarters. Don't sweat it, car is made to be driven, enjoy!

Lol dude its A Stang man, DRIVE IT! lol

Tires, brakes, and clutch. As long as you don't mind replacing those, go at it.

I have a few good videos of some silverado's, duramax's, srt-10 ram, and my stang-- trust me, burnouts are wonderful-- not for the tires but we love 'em lol.

if your holding the breaks then you might be replacing the rear breaks a little sooner lol

lol damn im slow

manolith · March 2nd, 2011, 11:04 PM

if you get one of this....

you could do burnouts all day long and the only think that you would stress is the tires.. now burnouts are totaly pointless if you are not doing them at the track with a set of slicks or sticky drag radials.

if you dont have a line lock then you could burn your clutch distroy the rear brakes and possible damage the transmission.

I would invest in a line loc and an ignition box with a built in rev limiter. Will help keep you from blowing your motor up if your foot slips somehow and you mash the shit out of the pedal.

doughnuts are more fun that burnouts.
