How the hell do you do a burnout, no matter what I try with track mode settings turning it to rwd balance and the stabilization to -10 and all this car refuses to lose the back end to burn out.
The tires are at the end of their lifespan and I’m going to replace them for the snowfall in a couple of days. I want to have some fun with them before I’m scheduled at the shop
I don't believe you can do it and for a good reason, considering that without gears and with lost traction and instant torque you would spin them to the top speed almost immediately.
Tesla software won't allow the car to burnout while front wheels are pointed straight, even with RWD bias and stability as low as it goes. You can only get it to roast the wheels if you are turning. Skip to 14:00 in the video for that.
If I'm wrong I apologize. My data comes from dealing with cars that have broken the ABS wire while on track, and they all get way slower, and do not suddenly turn into RWD burnout machines. So I'm intrigued why it's different in this case.

I believe this advice from @Mash is very important. With an EV you don't have the safety of a low ICE redline / rev limiter to keep you from spinning the wheels to rather insane speeds. @Tishiep If you find a way to entirely defeat traction control in this car, be very careful not to let your tires catch traction again while spinning at 120 mph or whatever. That could be very bad for your drivetrain...
I've no personal experience with burnouts, and clearly Tesla drivetrains are pretty tough, they seem to hold up to drag racing very well, but I would still worry about driveline shock from the extreme RPMs that are possible. I'm not saying you shouldn't try, if you really want to try, just be careful and be accepting of what might happen.
When I used dyno mode once with all 4 wheels off the ground, it was trivially easy to get the car to 150 MPH. In fact, in "creep" mode, it would do it by itself.
Maybe the right answer is to combine track mode with valet mode
