Burnout Donuts

Quick question, will doing burnout donuts wreck my suspension or screw up my alignment? I could care less about the conti-shits but otherwise want to avoid beating on the thing too much...

Dude- I suggest you ready your flamesuit. From me you will get it sounds like fun but others will give you a great big WTF.

I haven't actually done it, though I have to admit it looked like fun so I was tempted by the though. Anyhow, what is the best rpm at which to shift from 1st to 2nd when launching the car?

No offense intended, but as english is not my first language, am I missing anything? I mean, is the thread serious or is it a joke?

Donut, or not donut, that is the question! Did you put it into second or keep it in first around 7-8000 rpms?
