Dumb question - what is chirping?

people talk about it quite often, but i'm not aware of what it really is. is it tire spin going from 1st to 2nd?

So when I launch the car and chirp them starting up, that suddenly doesn't count?

BS, that's a chirp too.

Chirping is the sound that comes out of your ass when shifting the CLS from 1st to 2nd at 6750 RPM.

Uhm bogging is only on a manual tranny car and is when you don't rev to a high enough rpm for a good launch.

and "Chirping" is a very short peel-out, so it does count so NYAH!
