The exhaust is a pair of long tube headers, H pipe with catalytic converters and a pair of Flowmaster mufflers.

No line lock. You can tell by the way the car jumps forward a few inches. I honed the technique in my 87 Dodge Ram.

Nice! You got line loc, I assume??

No sir, pop the clutch and stab the brake. Old school style. OP, super clean notch and sounds great.

and because it brought back memories, here is my 93' Cobra from 20yrs ago burying some M&H drag radials... :)

Well, how the heck do you not roast the rear brakes? I've done this braking style of burnout plenty of times, but always let off the brakes once the tires are spinning freely... is that what you mean?? In OP's video (which I like, haha), it looks like he has front brake applied, otherwise the car would creep forward.

He does, and when you want the car to start moving you let off the brake, like he did in the ram video posted above.

Refreshing to see someone who knows how to drive. Hahaha

Yep, not good for the rears but in my vid I am standing on the brakes until I release and roll out 1st then pull second. Did this with my 12' GT at the track for years as well.

Nice.... as long as you don't mind heating up the rear brakes, it works good. I could never stomach the thought of it (roasting the brakes) hahahahaaa. My style is like your older video.
