Talking Can't Launch AT? Do a burnout then

Stock everything AT burnout.
Who says automatics are slow off the line ok, at least off the line in style..

Right Right, It is true that the engine wont let you rev pass 2.5k when you have your foot on the brake, so a real launch is no good.

But you can however do burnouts, just as the engine approaches 2.5k, ease off the brake pedal and the rear wheels should break free. As one member said, hold the brake just enough to make the car stationary. That will save the brake pads for later use lol

Let my friend had the fun, he's a bit low. That gotta cheer him up

No. The parking brake locks the rear wheels.

Seems like that would eat up your transmission pretty quick.

Yeah, that tranny or diff sure didn't sound too good. Should have just left it in N, then rev it up and drop it in D or M. Then stand on the brakes. LOLZ!
