either way you look at it its not going to be cool cause you dont have a LSD, but i would say rip the e-brake and gun it.

LoL I think its funny that you are worried about going from neutral straight into drive because its bad for it. Doing a burnout period is bad for your car. But, that being said, its still fun to do from time to time. The best way to do it in your car is probably as live2rice said, just set the e-brake and then floor it and hope for the best. Are you just trying to do it for the hell of it, or taking a picture of it or something?
