Line lock versus anti wheel hop upgrades

[Performance nut]

How will our cars react if you invest in anti-wheel hop upgrades and do a line lock? I never used the function before but my understanding is that it locks the front brakes and then you hit the gas. If the suspension is doing everything it can to keep wheel hop in check, I imagine the result will be a lot of vibration and buckling. Just curious what will happen and if it is a good idea or not.

It just spins the tires.

I really don't see a lot of difference between doing a burnout at a complete standstill and burning out while starting to move . . . other than the amount of time you can keep the tires spinning, that is.

You didn't specify that this was for drag racing, and if it's about doing potentially risky burnouts elsewhere the question of it being a good idea or not kind of answers itself.

You'll be fine with a few suspension upgrades. I have bushing and K-member braces and my burn outs look like this.

The result is more wheel spin, and less shaking.

So in reality, it gets easier to do burnouts!

Quite the opposite effect I thought it would though it makes sense. Awesome, thank you for clarifying.

Badass man . Are those the stock 18" wheels?
