i dont understand how some of your cars can do such a burn out ecpecially in an automatic, ... they do have traction control wouldnt that stop it?.... have a 2.2 CL automatic and i can not get it to do a burn out!!!! im pissed!!..i wish i could do one... is there any tricks?..

 

theres no traction control on 1st gens.. and.. get a manual next time

 

see I told you..lol

 

ok well since there is no traction control.. why the hell cant i do a burn out!!!!!!!!! any tricks please help!!!!

 

You need more torque!

Try pulling up the E-brake and then burning out.

 

Its a 2.2 engine w/145 hp. You tell me why you cant do a burn out

 

lol. . why the hell didnt i get my self like a supra or a nice Z06 Vet?!z

 

well.... there is one way... just take it up to 5000 in neutral and shift it into 1st gear. you'll get the tires to smoke real nice.

but remember.... dont do this unless you want your car gone for more than a month while the people from acura are ordering a new auto tranny for you.... and laughing all the way to the bank.

for the people that read this..... dont flame me... you know you wanted to post this reply too.

 

hahaha...

but normally traction control is on cars that have lots of power and torque...for instance the M5...they have it, their peak torque is around 2000-2800 rpm range (forgot where exactly)...but if you turned it off...u better really really know how to drive well or else you wont be able to drive it with the traction control off...good luck...i'd like to see that

 

my m coupe has traction control.. never use it tho.. much more fun drifting around turns

 

Hmm... I know that our cars have no official traction control system like the ones that are currently available. However, I was told by my dealer, who cited the owner's manual, that our GEN1 CLs are designed to operate as if there was a form of traction control. I was told to keep the car in "2" when driving in snow and at icy intersections. From my experience, it had a similar effect but not as good. I mean, the car starts off in 2nd gear and stays there which doesn't allow the tires to spin on the icy surface as it would in 1st gear. Its worked for me. But, I still wish I had REAL traction control. Anyway, like I said, I know we don't have an actual TCS on our cars but I thought I'd throw in my two-cents for those who live in snowy areas where this could be of some help
