i got one even better than that D <<isn't it easier to wheel spin any front wheel drive car since the front end lifts up on any launch ???>> DUHH [bust] basically the car is being dragged by front power! [whistle]

and like the man said (somebody correct me if im wrong) [stop]

a supra can do that with its lights off <<get it? "light's off!!" as suppose to "eyes closed!!" lol......well i thought it sounded funny>>(burn in 1st 2nd and 3rd gear) and before you try and get smart B20 (since my car is an auto 3 gear w overdrive trani with ECT control).... NO it cant burn in 3rd gear but it will do it in 1st and 2nd and thats with LSD [driver]

i will never under stand WHY man love to associate burnin rubber with power?! like its cool or something!! i rather like to see the damn car move than it have no grip or control on take off [thumbsdown]

Most cars can chip or burn rubber, just look for a lil bit of sand on the road and change the gear at that point, or better yet turn the wheel put the car off balance and chip all the way to third gear.

yeah well i didnt know wheelspin was a sign of plenty power, or is it plenty traction loss. correct the rookie.

Na man...it just means you have enough power to break the traction available. If you burn a 4wd sports car on grippy road and good tires...you have power (until you break the diffrential - see evo2envy thread for details)
