since we are talking bout manual and when to shift...i got a question a lil off topic...ok im getting my camaro stick but dont really have any experience with manual...ive drove it before in my friends cars...an old volvo 740(i think) turbo, a 95 civic bubble back, and his dads mini cooper S...the hardest part is getting it into first and taking off...although im passed that point...im just nervous as to when im in traffic but wuteva thats not my question...my question is how the hell do people do burn outs? do they use their left for for the clutch and right foot to hold the brake and give gas? then put the clutch foot on the brake and then move the right foot fully to the gas? that sounds like it would work to me...and the only possible way...but the real question is, how do people do burn out and switch gears while burning out? are they doing a heal toe technique and just holding the gas down through shifts?

line lock helps but you dont need it.
yes, just spin the tires and use your clutch foot to hold the brakes. not that hard. and to shift, let go of the brake, shift, then hold the brake again with the clutch foot. not that hard either, the tires should be spinning fast enough at that point to where it doesn't creep forward much if at all. burnouts in the camaro might be rougher on the engine though with those huge brakes in the back creating a heavy load on the driveline. |

it still puts a pretty good strain on the whole driveline (rear end, clutch, transmission and engine). Not to mention, the brakes take a pretty good beating (AND TIRES!). |

letting the brake go for a second to hit the clutch is fine. so long as you keep giving it gas, you're breaking so much traction, you won't go anywhere. if you let off the gas, the wheels will stop.

well, you don't need to be anywhere near WOT to be spinning the tires. Even if your one of those rookies bouncing off the rev limiter, you still shouldn't be going WOT.

long story short...
horsepower is horsepower is horsepower as is torque is torque is torque 426hp in 1st is still 426hp in 6th. it just feels different. when I race I will continue to shift to every gear at 6000rpms no matter what all yall say. Therefore I highly recommend you guys to shift your ls3 cars at 6500, but get good at shifting first If you want to race me mr zebra I live in La Vergne I'd love to race your short shifting ass jk Do you have a car you run? I plan on going to the nashvlle spr spdway next month. I need to get to beechbend 1/4 mile too since I've never run one
