You know that by peeling off you are doing a lot of damage to your car ???

and even if you do know, but don't care..............you should've bought a stick...............you never get tired of it believe me.. and you can peel off all day long if you prefer do to so.......!!

Start in water.

If it won't do it by brake torquing (stand on brake and gas at the same time until the engine stops revving, then side-step off the brake), then it's not going to do it on dry ground.

Most small automatics won't peel out on dry ground.

i don't get it???

snyp7,
why would you want to peel out? you'll go through a set of tires real quick, and from what i've heard, the blasted rubbers we got on our cars are not readily available. but to each his own, i guess. try getting an intake and exhaust in there so you can rev higher faster. see if that burns you out. if not, then i have no clue... my p5 isn't powerful enough to peel even if i wanted to. and i'm just guessing on the intake and exhaust thing... i have no clue about this stuff... i don't have either on my car.

Only way is to start in water, our automatics have too low of stall

Only way is to start in water, our automatics have too low of stall for any wheel spin on dry pavement.

Or do what a buddy of mine did:
Install another windshied washer tank with pump and install the squiters pointing just in front of the tires. Use brake fluid or water etc. and with a press of button

On your auto. put it in neutral, rev up to about 4-5000rpm then put it in drive. That's how I peal out when I want to, but I rarely do it. It works for me every time.

neutral drops are the worst thing you can do to your transmission................

?

i certainly wouldn't call the guy stupid. it's his car and he can do what he pleases. if your not going to give him the info requested then back off. besides i would only call him stupid if he backed over a parking stop with his car to do a burnout....oh wait.....

ooouch, neutral slams......backing over a parking tie......
If the E-Brake by it's self doesn't work, give up.
for useless smokie burnouts you should bought this
or at least a stick, then you'd only be replacing your clutch.

You could always try putting on a set of cheapo bias-ply tires, pump 'em up to about 80 psi and let 'er rip!

were you born stupid, or did you evolve that way? last time i checked, neutral drops are extremely hard on autos. there's some dumbass who's daddy bought him a p5, and has gone through 3 trannies, cause of neutral drops. the guys at the dealership talk so much **** about him. if you're that desperate for a burnout, get a camera handy, cause i covered my car in smoke before i got new tires. and i have a 1.6L auto. first find a parking lot that has the stops at the front of the spaces. back over one. pull forward till your back tires are touching the curb. pull your e-brake. put it in drive, and have fun and take a picture of it, so you never have to do it again. i spent 1/2 an hour scrubbing tar off my car
Why are you flaming me? Like I said I RARLEY do it. Like every blue moon. You act like I said its a daily thing. I wouldn't even do what you said. Putting on a curve.
The last time I put it in neutral was some time last year. I only posted it because he seemed desperate for a burnout. Chill, take a nap or something.

Your Wrong 'Genius'! I already checked the dealership to change my auto to standard. It cost even more because they also have to put in a clutch. They said about $6,000. Yep, thats right. I hate autos.

I've tried going to new/used parts shops and junk yards,but all of them keep saying they don't have a standard for my car yet. It's kinda confusing. Or they tell me to come back, they may have some later or they don't carry protege/mazda parts. Maybe its time for me to check again.
