How to Do a Burnout
Method 1
- Use a Suitable Car — Not all vehicles can perform burnouts. You will need a vehicle that comes with high horsepower. It is also recommended that you use a new car over an old one. Besides, you will get better results if you are using a manual car, although an automatic can still do. You will also need to use street tires to achieve better results. Street tires come in smoother surfaces that can give out more smoke.
- Engage the First Gear — You should then depress the clutch fully before you rev your car’s engine. Don’t start moving yet. Keep depressing the clutch as you rev the engine even more. You should also engage RPMs up to heat the tires before you let them loose.
- Lock the Handbrake — After you have popped the clutch, the car tires will start spinning very fast. You can then choose to pop it to speed off to enable you to perform a peel out or lock your handbrake or parking brake to spin off your tires and create a burnout smoke.
- Release the Clutch — Once you have released the grip, the tires will spin at high speed to release high amounts of burn out smoke. If you want to stop the burnout, release the accelerator slowly and then free the car brakes.
- Automatic Car — If your car uses automatic transmission, then do the following: Put the transmission into D then hold the footbrake down fully. Then using the throttle pedal, build up the car rev. Once you are ready, release the car’s footbrake to enable it to wheel spin and release large smoke.

Steps You Can Use to Perform the Peel Out
- Try a Donut — Typically, a donut refers to a circular burnout. If you want to do a donut, then you should look for a large open area. The donut location should be free from other cars, people, animals, or any other thing that you may hit. A donut comes with a lot of risks, including losing control of your car at high speeds.

The Safety Brief
Alright, folks, you know the drill. We’re talking about burnouts and that means unleashing the power of your engine like it’s nobody’s business. You need to use that thing tucked between your ears to make sure you, nor anybody else, ends up on the wrong end of that machine.
Before we go any further, you should know that burnouts aren’t great for cars. In doing them, you’re putting a lot of stress on the drivetrain and tires. You practice your hooning at your car’s own risk.
The most important safety tip is not to do burnouts on public roadways or confined areas. Even if you’re keeping the car steady, you can wind up in the lane of oncoming traffic or off the road entirely. We’ve all seen what those Mustangs can do after a quiet meet…
One last thing, don’t go too wild and don’t get scared. The trick to a safe burnout is steady throttle control. Suddenly releasing the gas pedal or mashing the rev-limiter may result in the tires suddenly gaining traction. When they do, the car can hook up and take off right out from underneath you. If you start to lose your nerve, gradually let off of the throttle until the tires stop spinning.
How to avoid burnout in the future
Although it can feel overwhelming in the moment, Dr. Borland reassures that you can recover from burnout. “It takes work,” he says. “It comes down to establishing a meaningful daily routine, and creating and maintaining boundaries so you can attend to your health and well-being while also attending to the responsibilities of your job or your personal life.”
Once you recognize your burnout symptoms, you’re better able to take a break and recalibrate your actions if you do feel your life becoming out of sync. “You can say, ‘You know what, I know how bad this felt last time I dealt with this. I need to do a better job of maintaining that balance and attending to my self-care and those boundaries. I don’t want to get to the point I did last time.’”
Keeping the lines of communication open with your support systems can also help ward off burnout. “That’s another aspect of therapy — you often learn how to communicate,” Dr. Borland notes. “You’re not internalizing these emotions perhaps like you once did.”
At the end of the day, it all comes down to balance. “We often misconstrue the idea of attending to our self-care as somehow being selfish,” Dr. Borland says. “And it’s really not. I often remind my patients that in order to be the best friend, spouse, parent or child, you have to attend to your self-care. If your tank is empty, you can’t be the type of person you want to be to these others in your life.”
