can lightnings do a burnout?

I can't seem to get mine to do a butnout. I've tried everything....like flooring it from a stop, holding the brake and flooring it, reving it to redline in neutral and then putting it into drive, I've even put the front bumper against a wall and floored it.....and still nothing. What am I doing wrong?!?




just kidding.

Anyways I'm new to the lightning world. I just bought a '01, red, completely stock w/ 33k mi, and I've been trying hard not to drop a bunch of money for mods....just yet. I love it and what a difference over my explorer (as if I need to point that out). Just wanted to introduce.

No need to drop a bunch of $$ into mods, just a little will do!

Welcome to L World!!!

Great intro question!!! I'm sure there were a lot of flame throwers warming up until you added the humor. Welcome, sit back and enjoy the show.

I have to get going in reverse to about 25 then slam it into drive while keeping it floored. If I am on wet roads it will even smoke them
