Default how the hell do i do a burnout in this thing?

hey guys, new honda guy
ok iv drove camaro's my whole life, but something happend and i cant afford the insurance and gas anymore. so i got an 02 civic ex automatic, i cant figure out for the life of how to get it to do a burnout lol
now in a auto camaro you can just pull the ebrake and floor it, but i do this in the civic....nothin happens lol
what the hell am i doing wrong? i see fwd cars do burnouts all the time, so i know its not that.

i work at the honda dealership so believe me i test hondas all day long. in order to do a burn out in a stock auto civic. put it in reverse for a quick second, then quickly slam the thing in low gears while pulling up the E brake at the same time. does that make sense?

No, probably not. Put some oil on your tires.
