AWD Burnout?

[EMT9854]

Is it probable to do a 4 wheel burnout w/AWD?

No it is not possible. I was at a car show in a airplane hanger with shiny slick concrete. When I left I turned off the ESP, power braked the car and floored it and the car just bogged down, it gave a slight chirp upon release of the brake. But it sure is fun to leave everybody behind at a red light in a snow storm!!!!!

Well, it all depend on how "crafty" you are and the location. Power braking? Forget it! However, in a parking lot covered with ice and snow, it is possible to do a "burnout" while doing a donut. I'm not sure the ESP will allow it, but if it does, it is the tightest donut possible. I've done it with my truck in 4 wheel drive. The spin is about an axis going through the tranny, or close to it. It is a sight to be seen!!!!

I did this in my crew cab, long bed truck a few weeks ago. Like you said, it just rotates around in the same spot. To bad there was nobody around to see it. It takes BIG horsepower to spin all 4 tires on dry pavement.

put some bleach in front of all the tires for a really crazy immediate white smoke burnout... or you can use silicone or just some cooking oil! good luck! be ready to wash your car when your done! and if your going to actually go threw all the trouble to do it then film it... we did this with my friends rental audi when his car was in for service just to experiment.. its cool for the moment!

Several years ago I was racing Turbo FWD's (Mopar of course) back east. I was ATCO once and saw a AWD turbo Talon that was deep in the 10's This car was crazy. It would do a 4 wheel burnout and when it did the whole car would raise up about 2 or 3 inches from the tires expanding due to the centripetal force put on them. It was a cool site to see.

I saw something similar. Used to hit the street races at night. There was an AWD turbo Talon that used to spin all 4 wheels on take off. The guy was running a crazy amount of boost. Fastest burn and hook I've ever seen.
