hmm well im an idiot and tried it with my mom's new audi and almost f'ckd the entire thing up. i could be wrong, but if i were you i just wouldnt do it again.
 
When you stand on the brake and floor the car in gear.

This is AN EXTREMELY BAD IDEA IN ANY CAR, LET ALONE AN ALL-WHEEL-DRIVE CAR.

If you value the car's transmission and viscous coupling, NEVER DO IT AGAIN.

So you can sit there and just have the tires smoking. You've never seen a burnout competition?


Oh yeah, it's really really bad on an AWD car. I wouldn't be surprised if your center diff took a shit on you within a few days.
