Hummer H2 For those who like a little more gleam to their Hummer, the H2 offers a similar rugged look as the H1, but as a lower cost, and with more added features, making it almost a massive luxury SUV.

Default H2 burnout

I thought of this in the shower along with my other great but useless ideas. Wouldn't it be possible to do a burnout in the h2? Yes I know its awd, but its a 40/60 torque split between front and rear, and it is essentially just an open diff in the transfer case. Thoughts? Am I just stupid?

Why risk the damage to the Drive train and what would it prove. I guess I just don't get it.. Your rig, your money..................

Not enough HP to do an AWD burnout.

add about 1200 to 1500 lbs torque and have fun,

the diesel guys do it all the time in their 4WD pickups

there are some videos of H2's in the snow having fun

I will say the torque steer is terrible if your not ready for it, on wet roads

It is hard on the drivetrain but looks to be fun

I thought the H2 was all time 4WD with equal torque to all tires?

I completely forgot I posted this stupid question. I think It would take a ton of torque to do it. By burnout I mean rear tires only. The h2 is full time 4wd. That being said, the full time 4wd mode uses an open differential in the center with a 60/40 torque split under ideal conditions. So if 1 will breaks traction completely, the vehicle will not move unless the center diff is locked. So in theory, it would be possible, but I don't think it would actually be possible with the 500hp that my supercharged 6.2 has. And in 4lo, it would likely send a driveshaft to the moon.
