You cant sit there and smoke up the rear tires without pulling the ABS fuse or brake light fuse????? Something like that, I'm sure someone will post up what you need to do. If your just trying to spin the tires and get a clean tire for a run coming off the clutch quick at a high rpm should get the job done, make sure TCS is off.

I figured cause my procedure would be

rev to around 6k with clutch fully depressed to avoid burning the clutch while in first gear--> dump the clutch without letting go of gas--> lightly hold the brakes

car would die on me everytime

Can we at least burnout while moving? What should we rev up to for that and do you let it hit the limiter

You can't do a standing burnout... You can do as exactly as you described, just don't put your foot on the brake at the same time.

IF you want to do a standing burnout, you must remove the Stop Lamp fuse down by your left foot. This will unable your taillights from lighting up though.

yea i believe that if you touch the brakes the throttle is cut down immediately to idle air flow. that's probably your main problem here. line lock to the front brakes would probably be the only way to do a "proper burnout"
