i think you could do an awd burnouts. I've seen it before, but that's clutch drop with an aftermarket clutch at around 7000 rpm.

it's not worth it, since that dude is out of engine and transmission after 3 months.

BS. You will not sit there and smoke all 4. I have 400+ whp and when I launch I don't sit and spin all 4 tires, I go forward while spinning all through first. You will spin but move forward. You can do all wheel drifting and smoke all tires just get the car going in a circle and then slip the clutch a little and turn the wheel and you will loose traction. It's not that hard but it is hard on the drivetrain. Maybe I will make a video of it next time I launch the evo or do some parking lot drifting.

It's doable in a stock evo.
As for breaking stuff... it's certainly possible.

Look at my post and you'll see a thing under it that's a different color and it says quote. I wasn't "quoting" you moron. You see under my post there is the box where I quoted topout. God, learn how to navigate before you jump down my throat Mr. E thug.

AWD burnouts in the rain are awesome but if you find a big mud puddle to grease your tires you can do them in the dry too. You don't even have to drop the clutch. Turn the steering wheel and floor it, when the boost hits the back end will come out nicely. I've had the back end come out 90 degrees, full opposite lock, 90% throttle and the front wheel drive saved the day. Really awesome car.

P.S. I am not one of those people who burn out around every corner, but its just nice from time to time.
Off topic, nice friggin videos

yes very true, any turn thats about 90 degrees or more just stay in second and as you go into the turn floor it, it'll squeel at first from G's and engine, but when boost hits you can drift the whole turn

Not an EVO and I wasn't trying to spin but you get the idea. Here is a 11.0 @ 137 pass I made at night it is easier to see the smoke coming off the tires in the lights. AWD's have traction problems too. Enjoy.

Look at the first few seconds of this clip. This is me in the red Evo, from a few months back. Not the best launch. Too much boost. Did smoke all 4's. The gun shot sound was the AEM 2 step in my car, building boost.

Launch
