People tell me theres something wrong with my car, its quite embarrassing as well, haha. Only way she will spin tires is if i pop the clutch a bit. Cripe my 200hp SHO 4door sedan spun the tires easier than this car, odd.

I agree with the retarded thread and wrong section comments.....But I'm gonna post ne ways.
It all has to do with suspension, and even more so tires. My car in practically stock form never had any problem spinning the tires from a 20 mph roll-but they are POS tires. With a set of bfg street slicks it's a different story

I have 4.11s and I cant spin the tires from a rolling start, no way no how. I'm mostly stock too, just a lid and cutout. Then again I do have box LCAs, adjustable torque arm, panhard bar, koni shocks, dms springs, nitto drag radials, blah blah blah. It amazes me when people say they roast them shifting to 2nd with stock power. I couldn't even do that with street tires. All I can think of is bad suspension?
