Burnout with 2ss Automatic

I love the car but even when I put it in competition mode I can't get it to do a burnout. I hold the brake but the car won't rev high enough to turn the tires.
Any ideas?

Don't push the break so hard... Even better if you hold the break stab the gas then quickly take your foot off the break.

Chase and MT both have excellent ideas!!!

Truth be told... If it's stock... heavy car, 3.27 gears, a lot of rubber and about 330 hp to the road... It's not going to be easy. Also, do it on a cold day. The car will run better and the tires stick less.

Here is my last burnout... but I have a manual and 415 to the tires.

Competition mode only goes to 1500 RPM's. You need to hold button down for 7 to 10 seconds and turn everything off. Then try your burnout.

my 2SS doesn't burn them tires either.... but I have a plan..

There is this character in Texas whom I will call....He goes by the name of Andy..


I'll tell him, "Mr. Mages, my car doesn't burnout"

Maybe he'll add a spark plug or something...

Yes, this is true... If you're not holding for 8 seconds, it's really not going to happen.

Also, maybe the OP needs to try the fuse pull.

Apparently no one. But you bitches can suck on my 9 second car!!

I just need y'all to be patient for another month or so.

And trouble maker, I'm picking up the two place car trailer in 9 hrs so we can push that turd of yours to the limit and if it breaks I'll take it back to Teds with me.
