When it hits 2nd gear, you are losing power between shifts, and when it senses the need for more power, it downshifts.. drop it down to 1st gear, start your burnout, and hold the throttle at a reasonable RPM, and kinda feather it up and down..

I'm sorry guys, no offense to anybody, but why are you doing burnouts? Fuel costs sky high and the price of tires even higher, and the price of a new engine, it don't make sense to me.

Cause I can..


Fuel is DOWN right now.. under $3.00 a gallon.. Tires really dont get torn up too badly if you pick the right surface to bo the burnout on.. and the price of an ENGINE??? seriously.. If I thought doing a burnout was gonna blow my motor, well.. I guess Id sell my Goat and buy a Cheby..
