Getting tires to do a burn-out!?!?

[Mr. Incredible]

I haven't had any interest in burning the tires, since reaching age 21.

Lol, I was in my mid 40s when I decided I was too old to roast the tires.

Turning off the ESC does work! I just wanted to see if I could leave a burnout mark on the newly paved road in my neighborhood. It worked fine. Now I know what it can do. I'm only 73 years young; so I now know that both my F-100 hot rod and Genesis 3.8 can get it on quick enough for my curiosity to be satisfied. Most of the time I drive like the proverbial "old lady".

It works for burnouts but when trying to do donuts esc will cut all power. If you pull fuse 3 thats in the engine bay it turns it off but it turns alot shit off so your dash gonna be a Christmas tree
But it will let you do donuts, I swing it all the time just bit of a hassle might install a switch or something
I have 2015 5.0

Hundreds of workers at Goodyear were depending on you too.

I do a burnout once a week for good measure.

Must make Michelin and other tire companies very happy when this is done...

Thank you for carrying on the touch.
There is a whole thread dedicated to this very purpose of building a wireless ESC disable mod, in the 2009-2014 section
Remote ESC disable mod.

It IS heavy, and in not the best places. I can lean against the car when reaching the center of the hood (waxing/drying) and hear the fender metal pop in and out. It's pretty flimsy. My G37 never did that, it was solid all the way around. It also had a 3.6 engine (vs 3.8) that made 328 HP (vs 311). But the 3.8 does get better MPG - 2+ in the city - and burns regular/87 vs the required 91 in the G37.

Hell, even my 5.0 gets better mileage than my old G37s...

You can find the video of what to unplug, re-wire, then you can do a burnout - Genesis G80 burnout on youtube but I think it's done with an older 5.0
