you havent got a limited slip differential which means all the power goes to the rear right tyre. if you have a LSD or a lock diff then you will always spin both tyres but without one u will only spin both tyres with a bit of power and practice

If I could smoke it in my EA 3 spd auto.. anyone can smoke it in any E series lol
my EL now smokes nooooo worries.. try doing it when the tyres are cold though.. they're far less grippy then.. oh and tyres cold.. but not engine.. a cold engine being thrashed doesn't like it hehe

my ute (1995 XG longreach, column shift auto) smokes em wonderfully.

hold brake down and put the pedal to the floor :)

my ute has LSD (as seen by standstills) but recently the cornering burnouts only leave 1 mark - they used to do 2, but the standstills still have 2...weird...faulty lsd?

btw thats private land. :?

i finally got my car to do a burnout, it took some gravel :oops: but now its all good, i was getting a little worried, why dos my car not spin? its an ef, auto with and 2 1/2" ?????


if they didnt spin on gravel, there'd be something seriously wrong!

what sizr tyres you got? maybe they're just too grippy? unlikely though, id say you're just not trying hard enough :P

It's a scary world when there are people under 20 driving around who can't do burnouts.
I blame TV.

All the power will go to the wheel with least traction, which can be either the left or right, an LSD will do the opposite

Under 20 = newish P platers, most likely to run amok.
And I don't do burnouts, except for at the strip, I am a law abiding citizen :D

I worry about you guys that can't do them I really do.
Either your car is f**k, or you don't know what you are doing!

Heh, never thought of it like that lol.
It fits!
Mainly came about cause they are 'boxy' when compared to EF/EL's.
