What RPM. What gear for 6 spd man line-lock burnout?

Never tried it yet. Got a burnout contest this weekend and tempted to give it a shot.

Whatever RPM you choose. The higher the RPM, the more the tires spin, the more smoke.

I do my burnouts in second gear at the track. I’m pretty sure you’ll have enough power to do a third gear burnout, as long as they give you a bit of water to start with.

A burnout contest in a 70k dollar car? Not what I would do with it, but to each their own I suppose. Hopefully the winnings are worth a pair of tires at least. I wouldn't go out there and blow my tires and risk trashing my car for that though...and that's probably the only way you'll win it.

The higher gear you're in the more tire spin too.
