roll

Try pumping the pedal a few times.......hold it down and get on the button. I have had this problem in most of my cars and it always works for me.
Good Luck :lol:

Pump up the pedal and really stand on it. Also, try doing the burnout in 3rd gear and bringing the RPM's up faster. Mine will do it a bit also, but not when wet.

Air in lines will cause this also.
