On an incline for one, Can't tell if thats cement or not. So meh, I could do the same in my MT on an incline probably, I know I can make the tires scream through first and a quarter of the way through second.

Forward acceleration is arguably more fun.

Props to the Fit for being able to light up the stock tires though. I guess.

Nice burnout! Can't think of a better way to get rid of the crappy stock tires.

Vehicle designed for efficiency doing burnouts?

Unless it is heavily modded under the hood... we all know the limitations of the Fit... so what is the point?

Oh ok...

I remember doing burnouts in my 1972 Ford Pinto Hatchback.

Enjoy!

I'm not anti burnout, I just prefer high hp burnouts. Not some guy pulling his ebrake on a driveway incline. But it's not my car so I couldn't care less.

I still have to cheat to do real burnouts, either neutral drop (too afraid to do often) or hold the ebrake till I hit boost. Just not enough torque under the boost threshold to spin these 205s.

That's exatctly what I thought nxfit, I didn't think a little Fit could even do a burn out much less the shmok'n he got outta that GE8.

Big Mike
Not me Jeremy not in the Fit ....but the Charger O'ya! Takes me right back to 18
I remember when I learn to flash the converter to get the rear tires to hook-up haha remember those ol' glassbelt 50 series tires? Looked like a dragstrip ha ha! those were the daze.

Pretty cool for our small little engines!

I'll show my ignorance and ask about the two wheel burnout. I thought it would have been one wheel open diff type affair. Looks like a limited slip or something?

I'm not sure why anyone is surprised when ANY 5-speed car can do a burn out.

I had a 1990 Civic STD model with a 70hp engine and 4-speed manual tranny, and if you redlined it and dumped the clutch (with e e-brake on of course) it'd roast the tires too. So a 117hp Fit roating some tires isn't news to me.

If I were the homeowner in that video I'd be beating that guy's ass for leaving rubber on my driveway.

When you overload an open diff both wheels can, and will, spin. The open diff essentially sends power to the wheel with the least amount of traction, so if both wheels equally have little traction they can both spin until one starts to grip.

I know this is a 2nd gen thread but thought I'd share my first and probably last real burnout before some new tires. Enjoy I Know I did lol

Honda Fit / Jazz 1st-2nd Gear Burnout - YouTube

P.S. No Trickery No oil, water, bleach, incline lol etc.. Just an E-brake, a road, and a FIT!!
