burnout question.... sorry If this is in the wrong place...wasn't really sure where to place it.
I did a brake stand yesterday and the car turns from looking straight ahead at 12 o'clock to about 2 o'clock...is this normal?
edit: wheel was kept straight entire time...

Well you're car since it's not completely modified most likely has some type of limited slip differential. If the tires start spinning different speeds due to your limited slip and the friction being different on each tire depending on psi differences, tire temps, type of pavement each tire is spinning on, etc... your car will begin to turn based on which tire is getting more traction (even though your tires are spinning)...
True locker cars and cars with spools seem to do it much less than those with limited slips diffs....
Just a physics way of explaining it...

Also, and forgive me if my explaination doesnt make much sense but here it goes...when your putting power down to the wheels, naturally they want to go straight ahead. But when they cant, its almost like they try to go around the front wheels. Im sure this may make no sense to anyone but myself but oh well.
