THROTTLE SLIP the clutch a bit set tires on fire and modulate throttle till desired carbeque smoke screen is in effect ...lift if car hops at all.

Pull in on the clutch, Press down on the throttle, drop the clutch, and if you want apply some pressure to the (foot) brake to hold the car in place. It's very easy. With my KB car you just hit the gas. Good luck, and if you do start to hop like sickboy said get off the throttle. And watch out for the COPS. Good luck.... the tire seller's will love you.

Heal on brake,Toe or ball of foot on gas. Hold brake down and then drive as if you are leaving a stop fast. Use the brake to keep the car steady and give gas appropriately until the smoke starts after that it's cake and all fun.

Or you can pop the clutch and heal toe it. I prefer the the first option b/c it is less stressful on the drivetrain when you refrain from dumping the clutch.

droppin the clutch is not needed at all and is hard on shit...you can go for the brakes but if you are askin how to light em off then the three peddle tango is pry oughta the current skills set. once the tires are ablaze you can peddle the shit out of it and get a slow rollin burn..

How I do a burnout: Depress the brake pedal with firm pressure, flip the line loc switch to "ON", with car in second gear, gently release the clutch pedal and follow the steps above.........
