Why is it that you have to step on the clutch before you can start the engine?

Modern cars you cannot because manufactures think its not safe, by depressing the clutch you can make extra sure it will not sudden launch forward. But with older cars there is nothing stopping you from starting the car in neutral, you can even start it in gear but it most likely move a little forward than stall.

How do you do a burnout in a manual?
Step 1: Rev Engine. Try not to rev too high, or you may cause damage. Step 2: Dump the clutch. This is achieved by quickly depressing the clutch pedal. Step 3: Try not to die. Because you have to ask how to do a burnout you probably lack the technique to perform the simplest of driving tasks. Actually, you should probably just stop driving all together.
