Default Burnout question..............

When you burnout on a SS or even a Z28, do put tires spin? I'm asking this because I had a 99' V6 Camaro and only the right rear tire spun when I would burnout.

Whattaya mean by "put tires"? A limited slip rear will spin both tires. An open diff rear will normally spin only the right tire. On rare occasions, if tire traction is identical on both sides, it is possible for an open diff to spin both tires. But more often than not, they do the one-wheel peel.

My old 66 Mustang had an open diff and if I did it just right I could get both tires spinning pretty easy. That car had some power out of the little 289 that was in it. My best pass on the 1320 was a 13.6 and I really didnt know how to drive it in the 1/4 mile. Fun car, I miss it, but I dont think I would build another one.
