LOL

Its a case of starting the burn out and using your foot brake to help aid 'not going forward'

It's all down to control and power.

There is more force applied to the front brakes so a relatively light touch is required.

With enough power you'll pretty much spot it without touching the brakes anyway.

most of the american cars are RWD so as said put in "D" holding the brakes slam on gas and slowly realese the brake when you ready to move forward hence if you search on yourtube the brake lights are on

On a lot of drag cars, they have a brake line lock where you press a button and that applies the brakes to the front wheels only.

I was thinking of your view from the grandstand at Santa Pod but yeah, that would be an equally appropriate location.
