you wont be able to do it on cold tyres, or cold road, or both.

no heat - no grip.

but then same applies to the rear too.

The secret is simply to compress the front suspension first, this way there's very little load on the rear and once it's spinning fast enough the front won't budge with the brake applied even on stone cold tyres - just a question of technique.

I never had a problem doing em before, but just that day my front brake would not hold the wheel still for some reason. I've striped my front brakes since then and gave em a good clean so i'm sure it was just that.

Maybe i'll practice at soho next week

whats the point apart from on a bike where you just about to get new tyres?

Today at work i did it in a C180, a vauxhall omega and a VW transporter. :-p

veedub transporter doing burnouts?

Now thats a vid worth seeing

ha i think its being rented 2moz at 8am but there's a vivaro still . ill do a movie using my phone. I find they work best when the road is cold and tyres are cold. Obviously- but worth remembering if you're doing it on a bike. Perhaps that's why some were struggling though im sure its down to technique
