Anyone elses dark horse not spin tires

[Ewags81]

same setup here but stock pirellis still. mine likes to get sideways in sharp turns(mostly self inflicted). i get some slip off a launch. but it doesn't make a lot of power down low in rpm. i've taken off clean, then the tires have let go around 5-6000rpm when the power comes in. it is a VERY well behaved car. faster than it feels for sure.

335s on the back and you ask why the car launches "properly". Jesus!

im not complaining at all i rather hook and go. Just my last N/A V8 was in High school and i had a 92 z28 and a 90 mustang gt. Im in sport mode and i have the 6 speed manual

Tires are a lot better than those made in the 90s, especially the summer high-performance tires. Of course, having 335 wide tires makes a difference too.

Yeah, a I agree. I put a Whipple on my '25 DH at just over 500 miles and added a Steeda Stop-the-Hop kit. I can spin in first, but the P Zeros hook hard with the the rear under control. Feather the throttle in first and then hammer down the rest of the way. Pulls like crazy...

I think y'all with whipples are full of it . Sometimes I think it doesn't spin. Then I hold down the TC button to turn off TC and DSC and floor it and the tires always let go. 325 wide PS4S and 305 wide RE71RS

Oh, mine spins, but the Steeda Stop-the-Hop kit really helps once I'm in second on up.

That's surprising. I'm not a burnout guy, but I was reminded just last night exactly what it is I'm driving (GT PP 301A Manual, Sport Mode, TC on). I was stuck at a light and made a quick maneuver into the next lane and floored it. I launched fine, but then started to get squirrley maybe 50 metres up the road (still in 1st gear) as the back end came loose. I had to let off the throttle before I become one of "those" Mustang guys LOL.
