I see many of you reference getting wheel spin. I don't get this, even with VSA off - maybe I've got one of the "slower" ones?

And, no, I WON'T torque brake the car.

 

uhhh, you should be able to spin the tires ... if you really want to...

Yeah, if you step on the gas good this car will spin wheels for quite a while. It's impressive. Even my friend with a 400HP Camaro Z28 was impressed when I stepped on it with him in the car.

With the stock tires I would get tons of tire spin. The amount of spin would depend on the road surface. The tires would scream comming off paint strips at intersections with only a touch of throttle.

With the non-stock sticky tires I now have, I only get a quick "rub" on start off (D5, no VSA, regular gas).

If you have the stock tires, your on "blacktop" pavement, and the car is broken-in (more than 600 miles), you might want to take the car to a dealer.

(just a thought)
