That is one of the things stopping me from going to a M6 with my new Stroker setup..I will end up sideways into something powershifting it
Even with the A4 with the LT1 it would go sideways from 1-2 and 2-3..shitty tires though.

I used to get my friends Cavalier to chirp 3rd..she used to get pissed..

exactly. He maybe just giving it too much clutch. If I hold down on the clutch a little longer while I hit ther gas, and then let off I'll make the tires bark. But please people don't take this as advice and go out and try it lol. Well do what you want don't blame me tho.

Anyways likey everyone else is saying there's a lot to factor. If your shifting fast and the car is pretty much stock, your probably doing what I mentioned. Your hand is shifting fast but your not letting off the clutch fast enough.
