Default Dounuts & Burnouts

I was wondering if it is possible to do a burnout in my car (quattro)? Will it hurt my car in any way? How about dounuts in it?

Sure, it's possible. Not likely on dry pavement if you're stock. It eats tires.

make sure if you are doing doughnuts not to hold the steering wheel all the way in either direction. Tends to burn out the power steering pump.

AUDI05, please tell me you are kidding. Do not try that with an auto. It's not like a manual where you can just replace the clutch.

Oh I forgot, it's fun to pour bleach over the tires before you do a burnout. Makes for a TON of white smoke.

if u have an auto u could put it in drive and pull the park brake if its not AWD.
Also hold your brake pedal and let them spin lose.
In my old car (mustang GT) i would rev it up with the clutch in then let it out quickly and i could get a 100ft burnout easyily but that was with a solid rear axle and rwd and a 300 hp V-8.

the only way to know for sure is to just slam the pedal down. But look above for otherways to make it do one.
