Warming DRs up

Hey All,

Is it possible to heat up DRs, at a drag strip, in the water box with an AT?

In my 350z(MT) i would pull the brake fuse out, so i could do a standing burnout without the engine cutting the power, and i would do the some pretty ferocious burnouts.

Of Course this was in a MT and was used heat up the DRs, which were pretty sticky except for when i would squeeze the juice.

However now that my Z is gone i still have the DRs that i still wanna use and was wondering if any of u AT guys know of a way to do a nice burnout in a AT?

Any advice/help is greatly appreciated.

-Frank

BTW i tried using the search function but came up empty handed

I did a little power brake the other day at a red light and it came out pretty good imo....

1- I turned DSC off by pressing the DTC button for like 5 seconds till the light came on saying dsc inactive.

2- I pressed the brake pedal down while stepping on the gas to do the burn out.

3- For some reason it will still seem to take power away and try to stop you from burning out but I found that if you let off the brake a little and let the car roll forward slowly while still burning out, the burnout will keep going

The only thing that sucks is the one wheel wonder... my turbo sc300 has an lsd so it was more fun with that...

try it out

Wonder is there is a fuse i can pull to prevent the power from dying when on the brakes/gas at the same time.
