The e-brake locks the rear wheels. The brake pedal locks the front tires. So if you have a FWD, you have to use the e-brake. If you have a RWD car, you have to use the brake pedal.

[@peterrawlinson137]

The brake pedal can lock up the front and back wheels, but more so the front

[@OldCarsAreFun]

@@peterrawlinson137 Thats right, people who like to do burnouts with a rwd car often use a modified brake system. Making it possible to only activate the front brakes. Otherwise you burn up your rear brakes

[@derri00]

No prob i tried this today but my car keeps moving foward why..?

[@SPUNKff]

+Alfred Fushaxhia your e-brake might be worn out or something

[@kleener014]

Or you have too much power in comparsion to the e-brake

[@Mesh3432]

Alfred Fushaxhia even the occurs to me.... The stock cars are like that..

[@JackGreazy]

I never knew how to do a burnout in my car. Thank you ever so much for this great video

[@SSFproductions1]

I did this. Fuckd up me clutch mate.

[@itsdrbbro]

Im surprised mine holds up

[@Proff0ak]

SSFproductions1 In what car were you doing it in, breh?

[@SSFproductions1]

MG ZR

[@djgallowz2383]

Haha no shit d clutch went or d engine 😂

[@Buggabones]

You probably gave it too much gas before letting off the clutch all the way. Letting your clutch slip and burning it out. Got to make sure it's fully engaged before flooring it.

[@HoustonPillay]

on my way to my friends house now!

[@TLTVGR]

tested with Skoda Fabia VRS works like a charm! thanks!

2nd gear when the car truned off

[@sermerlin1]

[@Hallowedwanderer]

as much as I love to see burnouts I would never ever try one in my car, I feel so guilty and bad just to think what Im doing to the engine and clutch lol

[@jakobbentley3979]

right

[@typicalcanadiancarguy7006]

For professional drivers they do it to warm up their tyres but it's mainly a good excuse for enjoyment before the race starts.

[@Buggabones]

As long as the clutch engages you will do no harm to the clutch. And as long as you have good oil, you won't hurt the engine.

[@jacobs9318]

Michael Sikalevski No, that's what a warm up lap is for

+CarFanatic 182 Thanks :)

[@sakariaskarlsson634]

1: clutch down+throttle at max in first gear 2: release clutch gently 3:enjoy the smokescreen lol

[@salteengaming]

Yes, the burnt clutch. And aren't you the same idiot that was lying about getting away with 130 in a 90 all the time?

[@coldfizzy9980]

“At max” 😂 that’s how you break components in your car mate

[@thekowbow1759]

HAHAHAHA love that outro!

[@OldCarsAreFun]

My friends don't! HAHA

[@gordonremsey8055]

Finally something that's not complicated

[@sk8s4aliving]

Its an open differential and it's not on ALL front and RWD cars. Some cars come stock with VLSDs which locks up and causes both tires to spin at the same speed under a certain amount of throttle while an open differential will only allow the outside tire to spin faster under any amount of throttle.

[@Vukasin.M]

You have a good e brake

[@angervision]

This is NOT Front Wheel Drive car. This is One Wheel Drive (OWD) car

[@el3m3nt115]

Hand brake only locks up the back if you slightly push the brake it locks the fronts a little bit first. You cant use your hand brake in a rear weel drive to do a burn out.

[@descentmvm]

i did this but my tires didnt spin it ended up dragging the back tires..

[@WhoisDuration]

+lethaldescent your e brake might need to be tighten

[@OldCarsAreFun]

+lethaldescent Not enough grip, you need wider tires and more weight in the trunk :) That would do the trick.

[@descentmvm]

+OldCarsAreFun I have a 99 prelude.. Does it on snow so good Lol

[@OldCarsAreFun]

+lethaldescent Snow is fun rolling burnout till 5th gear :D Preludes are nice cars! Just be carefull in the snow

[@Krazorr]

+lethaldescent Less throttle? idk haha

[@illuminatiaqi6130]

Love that car maybe the only Fwd what would I buy

[@jayy5804]

I think before try this pls check your e-brk hv enough strength

[@SuperMan19867]

lol one wheel drive (differential)

[@maral430]

only one wheel is spinning because it has an open differential like any other fwd car...in an open differential all the power from the engine will be sent to the wheel that is easier to spin or has the least amount of friction....unlike the locked differential

[@OldCarsAreFun]

@Sc0TT888G It wont stall if you have high rpm

[@SupahEXPE00]

Nice Lancer bro. I like it

[@brunosalamon7183]

You Make It Look Easy!!

[@Roadrash91195]

dude i have a neon front wheel and all you have to do is release it as normal just go up to 4-5 rpms not ripe your clutch out. before you do that think of your car first. the slipping happens when the tires rotate at a high rate.

[@WarMo05e5]

I just got my first car less than 24 hours ago.It's a 2003 pontiac sunfire coupe FWD. Friends house here I come >:D

[@zukomotloung6349]

[@Zzub7]

87 model subaru brumby, takes out roos like a champ!

[@3373hunter]

thank's man....it's just that i didn't know that my e-brake was so weak

[@169Phoenix]

That's a awesome burn out man...

[@SmileyBK6]

no, the emergency brake is a secondary brake line. it locks up only the rear wheels

[@taoufikbouazzati9297]

but you need a good E brake

[@SchweinungHD]

The best thing is to have a solidbrick wall in front of you and then release the E-brake

[@cliors200]

Burn out with open diff= One tire, fire

[@UFOENGINE]

I'm watching it because I will try this AT HOME :D :D :D

[@lyrik1990]

e brake locks the back wheels only. So front wheels are able to spin freely

[@jaredthompson1671]

Blew my turbo doing one of these. Never again lol

[@EpicFilms750]

How bout back sliding?

[@Zzub7]

my hand brake is on the front wheels? so i'll be locking the front wheel with the hand brake then trying to get the front wheels to spin.. please explain??

[@Veroxzes]

He meant "try this at any car store" lol "What the fuck are you doing!?" Yells the owner lol

[@Xempt_One]

@angervision yes, which is why there is only one of the 2 drive wheels spinning..2 DRIVE WHEELS!

[@flexpex94]

The handbrake is optional if you own a saab, i can make my saab 900 spin any day of the week.

[@flexpex94]

hmm, ye. good point.

[@MrKW420]

oh that's what I've done wrong, its e-brake and not brake pedal ._.

[@TransAmDrifter]

It's good that You show how to do a fwd burnout, but it's very bad, that You don't tell why it's wrong to do it.

[@xblceriyvolk]

Revving it makes the difference.

[@YoSoyMolimo]

If you have an auto just do the same steps but instead of dropping the clutch, brake stand it and let off the brake. You're ebrake should hold the car if you have it pulled all the way.

[@Nmbr0]

loved the try it at a friends driveway.

[@georgewhyte22]

This is the first comment after 5 years 🏆

[@togogot0]

To how much you rev the engine? And if you throw the clutch like that how does the car not stall? and why only the left wheel of the car is moving?

[@fatman348]

I'll try it at school.

[@Fifress]

ahahah your gonna pop the driveaxle on that thing xD

[@turkishsoldierbaran]

i am not too sure but it has to be high enough so that the rev doesnt drop to belove 1500-1000 before it moves

[@QuentinHitsVtec]

one wheel burnout! swagg!!!!!!!!

[@TimSter15]

Should I do this on my 6 year old Ford Fiesta?

[@0326Hambone]

Assuming your Ebrake doesnt break! (my $500 SVT Contour) Another tip when dealing with beaters, DONT TOUCH THE EBRAKE!

[@Kei-eo1wt]

The other wheel didn't spin ~~ lol :D

[@heath1982]

+Saibara Kyouma open diff...

[@ibrahimqureshi2420]

Open diff

[@Xempt_One]

@angervision uh, no...there are two drive wheels on this car, only one is spinning because the other has gained traction and and the diff allows it to stay that way without breaking or damaging anything, look up one wheel drive car on google..nothing..only a myth site saying that open diffs claiming to be "owd" are false

[@ВикторМарухин-с2ж]

This was a reason of rebuilding my VW's gearbox. Don't try this at fcckin anywhere and anywhy. Never. You'll don't like the results with melted reductor.

[@R0ckstrmik3]

Also do you keep the e brake up while doing it lol

[@OldCarsAreFun]

+R0ckstrmik3 Yes, if you don't the car wil accelerate with a bit of wheelspin instead spinning the tires in one place.

[@jimdog1276]

did you mention that can break the clutch

[@1xXN1CKXx1]

he's a genius!!

[@lazraxe]

ok put trays under back wheels pull handbrake on and accelerate and enjoy or if this did not explain fully search for vids or do it yourself :)

[@69Australianhero69]

i shall try this tomorrow, the tires a brand new, and i cant do a normal burnout from the lights cuz theres too much grip. hope this works XD

[@MagTony357]

I tryed this.....the second step is messing with me.....where's my clutch in an automatic? Its a fwd also........

[@Piotr3_]

i like this video, im bede tak robil w micrze xd

[@TheRaVuL]

I try this on the road of course...not at home !

[@togogot0]

Thanks What is considered high? for a regular, not modified "family" car?

[@Seto8881]

Don´t try this at home. hm... i want to try this at home, thats why i am here! :D

[@ChuySanchez23]

@tinderinc If its an auto and the E-brake works fine step one pull the ebrake, step two put the car in reverse step three floor the gas

[@wii3601]

@OldCarsAreFun .. whats the effect of this on the engine, cuz i'm driving a 1994 1.3L toyota corolla and i'm afraid it would hurt the old engine ... and nice video btw

[@MrSparky167]

i really want to do a burnout on swift sport just before i change my tires

[@TheLFCFAN2010]

So does this mean if u do that without the hand brake ul just take off with the wheels spinning or u conk out? lol

[@R0ckstrmik3]

How you keep there .. Cause if you keep giving it gas is gunna redline and damage the engine

[@strykfader1933]

If you guys wanna know what car that is, It is a Mitsubishi Mirage, but I don't know what the year is. I think it was made in the mid to late 90s or early 2000s.

[@OldCarsAreFun]

@Kaleb Sha: It's even older, 1989. Here it's called a Mitsubishi Lancer. This is the 1.5 GLi version.

[@DrBlobber1]

The fift step is to get differential lock so you won't explode drive shaft by spinning only other tire :P

[@alexckg479]

Nice caption at the end 😂

[@123fourfive5]

Can you do it with Automatic cars?

[@ibrahimqureshi2420]

Yes you can search it up and find the instructions you just don't have a clutch so you floor it

[@LaZarusXtnct]

That smoke was from the trans lol

[@louisebowen10]

Can do it a couple of times ten your hand break will be fucked, in auto rear wheel it's simple start if in first gear press the break rev to around 3k then pop the break if your car has the power it will work

[@lazraxe]

Mcdonalds trays... only way to have fun in a front wheel drive

[@ses8088]

i tried it but it didn't really workout and then there was a weird smell comming out from the car .

[@rappytappy]

Since most Subaru's are Flat 4/6's you'll have to do two headgaskets.

[@Mesh3432]

Mine is 1.2 litre Honda jazz Fwd.... When I try it, the car moves forward.... Can u tell me what's actually happening or have to correct anything..?

[@ibrahimqureshi2420]

Put some more weight in the trunk or have wider tyres get the hand brake tightened if the tyres don't lock

[@flamefleir]

oh so thats how u do it. i tried doing it by pressing on the brake instead of using the E-brake

[@SWTORVKAUS]

Phat Burnout!

[@ibrahimqureshi2420]

2019 anyone?

[@vasoberdzenishvili1751]

i want to try this on HONDA CR-V and can this car?

[@AShotgunZ]

I burned out my Automatic FWD on dry road. i have 140fwhp. shift to neutral and rev to 4500-5k let off gas and quickly shift down to D and get back on gas before RPM gets to low, if you catch it right you will peel.

[@rockafellayt4637]

If I did all this an my car still moves do u know y that would b
