Are you really sure about this? I've spun out tires on the CL and on my manual Mazda Protege and a bunch of my family's cars, and I've always seen two exactly parallel and symmetrical patches of rubber on the road....
I see how it would make sense in theory, but I don't think it actually happens that way...

It depends on the road surface, tires, road crown, and other issues. Depending on time, place (who knows what else), I've gotten 2 perfect stripes or just 1 stripe from FWD and RWD open diffs...
