I ran a mach one tonight from a dig and being new to racing i got on it a little too much and left about a 40 black mark. Needless to say he got me by like 2 or more cars. My question is when i burnout is it suppose to leave one black mark or two? A guy that was there has a 99 trans am and he said his leaves 2 marks. Does he just have positive traction on his car or does he have the same limited slip that I do. Doesnt limited slip mean that it would only spin one tire?

 

You should be smoking both tires on a burnout..

 

turn traction control off...and yes definitly both tires.

 

i dont have traction control on my car. But my car came with 2.73s and the guy i bought it from put a rear end in it with 3.23s. Could it be that rear end had traction control and since i dont have the button its on all the time? Since i only had one mark what would be the problem?

 

Does traction control definetly make u only smoke one tire?

 

Don't mean to get off of the subject here, but how far are you from Greenwood MS?

 

about 1:30 minutes. I have been there a few times a couple of years ago. I want to make it to greenville some time soon and run on the 1/4 track there. You know someone there?

 

That's my hometown.. I'm stationed in Hawaii right now, but I'm ready to get back there.. Good to know that Greenville has a 1/4 track..

About your question.. I hope you get your rear figured out.. you should just do a burnout to see if you smo

 

If you know where tupelo is thats where i live. Saltillo is maybe 2 minutes North of the mall.

 

Yea... I have family up in Tupelo...

I read my last message and it didn't make sense.. I'm a bit tipsy..

As I was saying, just go outside and do a burnout. If you aren't smoking both tires.. Maybe the rear that was swapped in was out of a newer v6..

I hope that isn't the case..

 

all ls1's come with a LSD

 

I had traction control on and both tires still spun. That was the 1st to 2nd shift though. Spun like hell.

 

So does anyone have an idea what my problem is. Could it be that for some reason the guy put a v6 rear end? Did the v6s come with 3.23 gears?

 

ASR just modulates the brakes and throttle to gain traction, it really has nothing to do with the rear end of the car, except for slip sensors. Posi should burn em both, a worn posi may only light 1 though.

 

I found using search that my ls may be burnt out. They also siad it could be fixed with a kit?

 

I just went out and tested a few things. First i spun in some rocks to see what happened and just the right tire spun.

Then i spun with the left tire in some mud and the right on rocks. Both the tires spun then.

Then realizing that with the weight on the right side the left spun also. I put 35lbs of pressure in the left and 18 in the right so that most of the weight would be on the right side still burning only the right.

Any help?

 

Me thinks your posi craped (or is crapping) itself. Both should spin if they both have equal surfaces.

Tire pressures that different will put more stress on the posi. If you're on street tires it probably won't help going down to 18 psi, matter of fact it may hurt. My best 60ft came on 30 psi with street tires.

 

your diff is worn out. I have a perfect one out of my car with a set of 3.42 gears they only had 12,000 mile on them when i took the rean end out of my car it hooked possy all the time. never even had it give out in the burn out book like some. willimg to sell whole rear end, gear or diff all together or separate. justy let me know.

How much you want for it?

 

I dont normally run my tires that low just wanted to see if they would both spin.
