When the tires start grabbing you will feel it and see your rpm's start dropping, feed in a little more gas to keep it up let off the brake and drive it up to the line. <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#dedfdf"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>03SVTPower</b> <br /><small>Member # 518</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2004,9,31,17,41,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> </font><blockquote><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial">quote:</font><hr /><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">Originally posted by cobraracer46:<br /><strong> This is the first time I have heard of a 03 Cobra that cannot spin its tires.

Rev to 5k and pop the clutch and grab the brake. Make sure you arent to far away from the water pit because if you try to do it in the sticky area it will be much harder and probably cause the car to go sideways or stall. I did second gear burnouts with my stock mach1 on dragradials(no water) with no problem. It just takes practice. SLP makes a bolt in linelock that will make your life easier, i am getting one for next season. <br /> </font> </td></tr> </table></td></tr></table> <br /> <br />
