Just for curiousity, is it possible to do RWD kind of burnout with 4x4 car I the 4wd system gives enough power to rear wheels, and if the car has enough grunt. For example: Sierra Cosworth 4x4 with 350 bhp, it gives 66% to rear wheels and 34% to front. If we take 6000 rpm, dump the clutch and press brake pedal, what happens? Rear tires burning like in RWD car or something breaks in powertrain?

I wouldn't be trying that with my Cossie but do anyone have any experience or knowledge about this?

i think it is possible but wouldn have the brake pedal in to far

1.9 xr2 on 40's

i expect something would break 1st, it certainly wont sit there spining all 4 wheels on the spot smoking up

tried it once with 200bhp ish, no burn out, just burnt clutch smells in the car

Chain it to something really heavy and then dump the clutch

Clutch would slip first I would think.

Not something I have tried, I fear something would break

My mate did it in an Impreza STi Type R... not sure how a Cossie would get on, I assume it would shit it's pants and break.

That's not a burnout. That's a series of 4WD donuts.

*Edit: the Jeep one just appeared, that's a burnout.

Don't see how you can do it, we have permanant 4wd, so you can't lock the front wheels with the brakes and let the rears spin. You'd do a clutch or centre diff i'd imagine?

vroooom ptssssh

No one else has asked.....so it's up to me!


W H Y would you want to?

Robs Frst

was thinking the same thing.....

James

lol at the jeep but there looks like something on the floor already at the start?

Why? why not? lol! i reckon a sierra would do a front shaft/diff though. & i reckon as soon as it took up drive the front axle would break!

rs_traynor

boy in the evo is pish lol

vroooom ptssssh

Why not?........

A: you don't want to fuck your transmission/clutch
B: cos it won't do it
C: cos you have an average or above average IQ

I still can't come up with a reason why you would, other than 'cos you're stupid enough to try it

Robs Frst

It's called, I like to not abuse my car.

Maybe you do in your Taxi or the shitter of the Focus you sold.

rs_traynor

clearly dont have a clue what your on about mate so wel just leave it there

James

lol, true, i wouldnt try it on my own car, not on tarmac anyway. works well on wet grass/snow though!

just buy an r32 gtr for all that mallarky, 2wd or 4x4 as you wish, i wouldnt even consider trying in a cossie you know it would break

rs_traynor

its called '' i like to not abuse my car'' llf take it you havent watched the boy in the evo then

if you dont think thats abusin it id hate to see you abusing yous

fezzaboyy

It will only work if you are wearing a Burberry cap on back to front lol

robrs2

Got any more info. Sounds good

PileOfRust

whack the handbrake on and try to spin the fronts

St3V3_C

You would fuck the VC up I would have thought.

It's delicate like that to the point that you can't put them on the brake rollers even.

Its tied up, you can see the rope on the back of it at the start.

botters

iTrader: (2)

yes you can

Mark_

I was told you can as the brake rollers are under 3mph

graham c

iTrader: (5)

i woz told 8mph but am not going to try it

Cossie92

Because burnouts are fun...? But like I said, I wouldn't try that in my 4x4.

u can put them in the rollers as long as u hav got a 4x4 settin or if u can run one roller backwards as the other turns forward not to load up the diff and trans box, or if u jack the front of the car off the ground, at work we hav to do the brake test out on the road with 4x4s tho as we dont has fancy rollers

just do a skyline conversion on your cossy you get the best of both worlds then .

burnouts serve no purpose whatsoever.

however you can powerslide a 4wd car and do dohnuts etc if your brutal enough to get it to break free or do it in wet.

Chip

No you cant burnout a 350bhp 4wd saph in the manner you are describing. It will just slip the clutch or stall when you brake.

Is this the "if i change my dump valve i get anti lag" bloke?

Ginge

Cossie92

Wtf, no? Its funny how people tear their asses from a simple question. All I wanted was to know that happens in practice if one tries rwd style burnout. No one is stupid enough to try it but Im curious about 4wd powertrain and thats why I wanted to know what would happen.
