Someone forgot to turn the TC off. I do believe that is going to cost more then 600.00 to fix. What a idiot. Why the **** would you post this on line afterwards.

This is a fellow Texan from San Antonio, what impresses me is the fact none of the douchebags standing around the car even bothered to scream STOP!

If the TC control was on wouldn't it have killed the gas or shut the TB? They are fly by wire. Im thinking he either left the parking brake on or was just slamming the brakes so hard with his left foot the clutch slipped before the tires got to spinning. A burning clutch smells way different than burning rubber, he must have smelled the difference.

The spectators seem to be wearing work shirts, making me think they work at a shop. Should they not have some automotive knowledge. Not only did they not tell him to stop, but afterwards their response to what was it was, I don't know. LOL gawd

your correct. With TC on it wouldn't allow the tires to spin and would kill the gas.

With competive handling on it will prevent the car going to far side to side.

With them both off then it's all power to the wheels with no safety nets.

the stock cluches glaze pretty easy, i think your right in that he glazed it then fried it....
