Do you wanna do a burn out? Push the clutch in with your left foot, put it in first gear, put the heel of your right foot on the brake depressing it, press the accelorator with the toes of your right foot, get the engine reving to about 3000rpm, release your left foot off the clutch very fast and viola! End result should look like this.....................

Wow, I've never tried it like that. I guess that would be fine if my engine had enough power, but this is what I've done: Put it in first, hold the clutch in with left foot, rev with the right to about 4-5k, drop the clutch and floor it while immediately moving the left foot to stomp the brake. Then modulate both pedal pressures if you want to keep moving while spinnin the tires..... Not too different, but obviously the other way works too!
