Default rear end???

when ever I do a burnout at the track, my limited slip posi traction rear end starts to burn out and then all of a sudden one side just stops spinning while the other just keeps spinning...is this how limited slip is supposed to work...

Sounds like your posi unit is worn out. Mine spins both tires turning the whole burnout.

btw how long is your burnout?

Just a few questions:

What type of posi?
How old since the install?
Last time fluids were changed?
Correct limited slip friction additive?

my burn outs are as long as I want them cause I have line lock...usually long enough until the smoke pretty good...
