Just went down the industrial estate and did the usual few burnouts and dunots. And got a question!



Well firstly, word of advice.Dont ever take your girlfreind for a drive if you plan to do anything. She got out and walked halfway through a rolling burnout , so i thought sod this, went and did some donuts and then drove and got her.


Then she calmed down and i unexpectidly did a nice smoking dunot....GOD did i get a mouthfull 8O 8O 8O





Annnnyways.My question is this. Everytime i do a burnout, keeping it in first pretty high on the revs, when i pull away and keep the pedal planted, or near enough, theres nothing there. No power. I was just wondering , in technical terms what sort of things are happening to my car. Why if you keep the revs up and light the tires, then realese the brake do you get hardly anything?



I think all this silly buggers is making my car slower, it feels rubish now lol. My dad took me out in a Turbo GT Fiat punto earlier he picked up from work. I was nearly crying as it could do me...and its a punto.....
