LSD or bald tires

(unless it is a GXL, then it has a LSD already )

Well a mustang is a torque monster...



... actually, 2nd gear might not be a bad idea since whenever I do it I have to SHIFT while still losing traction to keep it up.

If you want more HP to do burnouts, the easiest way is to lose the Cat and add a non-restrictive exhaust. You will gain at least 10% more power. Just my $.02.

Uhm, why? To impress the fellow grade 9s?

Just joking with you....Really, the answer is bald tires or more power. Also, take the weight out of the rear, and lube up your tires.

Narrow tires with high air pressure.

1.Increase temp by 20 degrees
2.Use an non-stick surface
3.Add water to your mixture(for that soft texture)
I believe most people like the glassed ones.

Good luck

bicycle wheels would do the job

but seriously it shouldn't be that hard my 83 could peel out like a mother, i would peel out going about a U turn step on it in first to like 6k while you are turning. I could also chirp on the highway going 50 and downshifting to 3rd lol. This is with a 12a with hi flow cats and cat back and a K&N and good tread on the tires, or it used to have good tread....

hmm
so you want your car to whip doughnuts?
hmm
well, you'll need some sort of spring device and an arm of some sort. Perhaps a bungee cord and a hinged pipe with something at the end to hold the doughnuts.
You could even rig up some sort of auto loading device if you really wanted.


Ohhhh, you meant the pavement kind?

Vosko can show u some donuts, he's the master at burns on, even on a 89 gtu.

Just dump from 8k and turn the wheel hard to the left and right and just keep on it.

I can do donuts whenever, and for however long I want. Same with drifting. My car has a newer engine, no cats, and a k&n
