How do cars do the burnout thing?

Question

I have seen plenty of videos on youtube with cars, usually more powerful ones, that can do burnout. Some explain that, to do such, you have to apply acceleration and press slightly on the breaks pedal, not the handbreak. How do the wheels from one axle keep spinning if the brake pads apply pressure to the discs for them too?

You don’t need breaks to do a proper burnout. You just increase the revs and dump the clutch…
