With the peg leg rear, do not think you really need to apply brakes at all to get the rear tire (1) to spin. |

The other stress is in the form of shock when dumping the clutch and all at once a motor turning 3,000 rpm connects to the tires,not only sitting still with a good part of a ton sitting on them,but being held by brakes.The splines,yokes,shafts,u-joints,gears,studs all take sress they are not intended to take.The biggest problem isn`t wear,it`s breakage. There`s less stress if you had 500 hp and just hit it.All the stress is in that single moment when still becomes motion.The more hp the less resistance at the road. ![]()

Re: Stupid Question about burnouts
In my 89 sierra, we disconnected the rear brakes, plugged the brake lines, roasted off some tires we found in the back of our school's shop, great fun

Re: Stupid Question about burnouts
pppffffttt. It's all small stuff!
![]() I did it the same way longhorn describes it. And I felt the need to do it as often as possible !! ![]() You wanna talk about stress, we used to do the reverse slams in the automatics!!!!! Wind it up in reverse and then slam it in 1st with the pedal on the floor!!!! We had contests to see who could make the biggest checkmarks ![]() We all had our own toolboxes and part supplies too.......................... Last edited by highperf4x4; 04-22-2009 at 01:26 AM. |

Re: Stupid Question about burnouts
We called those double J’s. I destroyed a rear end doing them. Those were the good days where you worked to pay for the truck and drove it like a carefree horn dog teenager. Now I grew up and don’t seem to have any fun.

Re: Stupid Question about burnouts
Well put Nacho.
![]() When I first put the 350 in my 68 a few years ago, I still did a few burnouts, but not anything crazy like I used to do in my Elky. Of course, I've got so much time and money invested in my truck now, I don't want to just sit and smoke the tires off of it. I just do an occasional peel out for fun.

Re: Stupid Question about burnouts

When I popped the hood on my last run, everything under it was uni-color and covered thick. It was like someone took a brown oil based paint and shot it with an airless rig on everything under the hood for hours. I jerked the same ford pickup out of the mud 3 times too! Some drunk hillbilly. |

Must have baked it in, considering headers can hit 1500* F
