I think I need more HP or better technique.. I can light 'em up but once it gets rolling at all it just grabs and goes... I've never been a big fan of using (abusing) the brakes to do standing burnouts.

with an auto unless u have mucho horsepower and torque there is almost no way to light em up good without using the brakes.. but really once they are rolling pretty good u can back off the brakes a lil and still hold it there or just get a line lock... as for a manual ive always stood on the brakes a lil while giving it some gas and lettin the clutch out get em rollin then let off the brake

W/ clutch in rev to 4-5k RPM, pop clutch.. Always works for me, rolling or otherwise. Truckzilla will gladdly chirp in second this way, even w/ those massive (in my eyes) BFGs.. I hate like hell to do it though. Everytime I hear the rear end chirp I wince as I know how much it will cost to replace those tires! Not to mention the additional abuse to the questionable clutch and trans..

I can basically just punch it while rolling and it squeals. If it is raining, or if there is water around, just forget traction alltogether. When it rains, it is hard to take off from a stoplight without idling off.
