With a RWD car doing a burn out is easy, how on a bike would I burnout...do you just hold the brake and adjust gas with your thumb?
Also, my bike redlines at 8500, would I just go through the gears revving up to 8000 for each, or would I skip out of first early like at maybe 7000, or is this something that I will find from experience.

Go to your local track on a test/tune night where there is no real racing and no pressure.Most of the bike guys are very approachable and willing to help a "newbe"- don't be afraid to ask questions. We all had to start somewhere,although I will agree the addiction is deadly - started out going to grudge nights in 1974 on my Z1 streetbike, have raced since 1979 and now crew on a world class TF bike. Ya, Im hooked...
