wheelspin in 3rd!

[black kro]

did it twice today exiting a roundabout @ 2000rpm in 3rd

hasn't done this in 40K, mind you it wasn't Superchipped last week!

My Punto GT used to do it.. good fun..

could be due to differential and all power going to one wheel?

I've only ever done that back in the winter when they were using that salt with mollasses in it. Coming off a damp roundabout in third at only 2000rpm and it was wheelspinning massively and the TC/ESP was doing nothing about it. Not a chance in the dry though, even in 1st but thats petrol for you.

I remember the dci80 courtesy car I had used to torque steer like a b*atch at 2krpm.

i got the wheels spinning in my 1.4 courtesy car earlier, was bouncing round a corner though, and it's wet.
