    my daihatsu charade loves it. its a manual but it absolutely loves abuse. its gotten to the point it doesn't run right if its not getting flogged. no water, no problem!. melted clutch, loves it!. even towing it down the road and dropping it into 1 at about 40 clicks with a cylinder full of oil didn't do anything. (if you leave a car on its side for over a month, take the plugs over and give it a wind) carby has given up on life though i suspect.

    I've got a friend who does it, revs it 4k, drops it in drive. It rarely creates a burnout, all that happens is you hear a loud thump and depending on how lucky you are, another thump as your gearbox falls off your car :P

    does it count if youve accidently done this from having one hand on the gear selector, driving tired and accidently pushing it into neutral, first reaction thinking 'oh shit thats not what i wanted to do' and put it back into drive but forgetting you were still accelerating? if so, then yes, once lol.

    yes that was a stupid moment for me :P

    Try it in an Auto RX4 Rotary at 6K.

    Not much of a bump, just snap, no drive, output shaft on box snaps!

    Nah, screw standing burnouts. The ute loses traction if you push it too hard in 2nd in the wet (in a straight line). Deadly stuff.

    I dont see the big deal, come to adelaide on the first sat of everymonth you can see this as many times as you want lol. i also do this quite a bit in my vy, bit harder in a manual so i cant get as much dramatic effect.

    Why wouldn't you do that. It's clearly the greatest way to warm up your transmission. And adds 10 cool points to your social status every time

    Exactly, I only do it when i first start it, I turn the ignition on, foot flat to the floor and jam it straight into reverse, before i hit end of the driveway back into drive. I repeat this untilt he engine temp guage starts to move.
