    With the hand brake on, rev it till it won't rev any higher, and slam it
    into gear.
    Warning - do this at your own risk ! :)

    Yeah, when you do that with the foot brake, it's called a "brake stand".
    Not too effective unless your torque converter has a high stall speed.

    Also...

    Automatic transmission rebuilds cost a couple of thousand dollars.

    Why on earth would anybody be so stupid as to want to spend that money
    before he has to?

    Respect your tranny. Respect your bank account.

    DO NOT try it unless your willing to EXPLODE your tranny after the
    weak/unharden diff pin wears through...............

    for example..............

    Parking the car on a road freshly sprayed with napalm and directing a
    flamethrower towards the car ?

    If you mean laying some rubber, just slip your clutch. Usually this means
    taking off 1000 miles out of the life of your spinning tires and your clutch
    each time you do this.

    Why don't you just get a bumper sticker that says, "i'm stoopid".
    It'll have nearly the same effect.

    Seriously though, if you want burnouts, then get a Maxima with a manual
    tranny. It'll get the job done.
