Sorry, just a little confused,
I have a FWD Buick Regal LS Automatic with a pedal ebrake. From what I understand to do a burnout you pull the ebrake and hit the acceletator. How do I do this with a pedal ebrake. Or is this completely wrong and I should do something different.
Thanks in advance.

you stamp on the E-brake with your left foot and hit the gas with your right, its not that hard, you could even put the e-brake down first if you had to because you only have 1 working foot or something.

thanks for clearin that up for me, I wasn't sure if the racketing action of the pedal would make it not work as well. Thanks, (and yes I have two feet and can work both at the same time):-)

What kinda things am I straining by doin it and how much and I straining it. I might think twice, It's not worth breakin down if I'm really goin to damage it.

you put alot of heat into the torque converter and rear brakes and running your car at full throttle with no air flowing over the radiator heats it up pretty well.

As drdisque said along with the whole Trans wont like it. Its just not a bright thing to be doing and serves no purpose with nothing to gain.

Mine is a 97.5 Regal GS. De-badged. You would be surprised how many people dont know the car is supercharged.. At a light, i race a ricer and his wheels give a little spin and then go's. If i mash the pedal to the ground the wheels spin like crazy. Once i melt some rubber and my wheels stop spinning, you can almost feel G-Force. The best part is when i blow past them.... Im sure it makes them feel small.

Burnouts are harder on the car than just about anything you would/could do to it.

The absolute worst is standing on the brake and gas at the same time. Talk about chewing up a trasmission in less than 30 seconds!!!!!!

yea, burnouts really arent that cool when you're holding donw the e-brake. Why dont you just drive around doing nuetral drops, thats even better for the car, if you're lucky, it will backfire!

I never did a burnout on my GP using e-brake. It has foot e-brake as well, I use it to p-park in the rain occasionally. I did mess around with rental cars, 2005 malibu and monte carlo. I did a burnout on the malibu on the Pier on Maui, result was punctured tire and "change oil soon" came up on central console... Monte carlo didn't have enough in it to do a burn out, car takes 12 seconds to do 0-60 mph with 3.5L Engine. I am dead serious about 12 seconds, I have a video of it.
