Actually there is a reason why 1/4 tracks call it the "burn out box" for a reason. It is called a Burn out when you want to sit there with the brake on and spin your rear tires.
burn out, brake stand are somewhat synonmous, but its technically called a brake stand, if you apply the brakes and stay in one spot. The act of moving forward is a burn out, which 99% of all cars do, when smoking them off in the box, since knocks off the water from the box.
The term burn out is used more often, but incorrectly, and has in a lot of car groups replaced the brake stand term. But if you trace it back to the muscle car days, the proper and correct term is a brake stand if you use the gas and brake together.

So, dont think youre teaching me anything. the true term used by any gearhead is a brake stand if the vehicle is not moving forward and the brake is being applied.
