On the drag strip it won't spin after 2nd gear(30mph) On wet roads it's EASY to spin the tires at around 75-80mph.. No problem. I think I have video of that too. The difference I see is that with a gasser, the power comes on smooth. With my diesel the power hits like a sledge hammer all at one time when the turbo spools. That may make it easier for it to jerk the tires loose.

My definition of spinning the tires a lot might be different from yours. Maybe two or three times a month.. Not standing burnouts either that kill half the tread in one shot. haha

I'm at the point where I'm going to take off these brand new BFGs and get Pirellis again. The 2 sets I ran before these BFGs just gripped the road much better. Not sure how they compare off road as I haven't been off road with these..
