time for a rotation now.

i don't get how you get the truck to stay in one spot when you do that, you hitting the brake or what?

i'm content to just powerslide every turn i make in town


pretty cool video though, and those wheels look great!

It's hard to say if it was a LineLoc or a Brake Stand. You can do a "Brake Stand" in most vehicles pretty easily.

- Put your foot on the brake pedal
- Put vehicle into Drive
- Keep your foot on the brake pedal
- Step on the gas pedal with the other foot
- Your rear wheels will break loose and you will stay in one spot and do a burnout.
- The object is to stay and remain at a certain RPM and speed. Once you get to that point, you can sit there all day long. A lot of people make the mistake of sitting there with the pedal to the floor.
- Once your rear tires start to spin, you "may" want to slowly release the brake pedal, but don't let go of it completely. This just eases the wear and tear on the rear brakes.
- When you are ready to move forward, release your foot from the brake.

It does wear your rear brakes out pretty good, but once you can do it correctly, less brake and continuous speed/rpm, it won't be as bad on the brakes.

Why didn't you wind that Hemi up to about 5500rpm. Would have sounded sweet
