Ok you all might laugh but this is a serious question from me. Can you peel out starting in Second gear?

At the quarter mile track I would back up into the water then pull forward about 10-15 feet to do a burn out in 2nd gear to heat up the tires. In 2nd gear the tires are spinning faster and heat up a lot faster. The water makes the difference as it lets the rpms rise without traction. As far as the clutch goes I dumped it at 5500rpm and it hooked every time jerking the front left tire off the ground about 6 inches. However, I would never do it on the street.
BTW...This was a '91 Mustang with a Windsor. |

You can make noise with your tires -- very loud noise -- and by using second gear. It is so easy that even you will understand. From cruising speed, say 65 or 70 mph, shift into 2nd gear and let the clutch out as fast as you can. The cacophony of your tires will be music to your ears. Keep us all posted on this!!!
