Tire spin from a roll?
 

I have an 89 gt 5 speedthats stock except for a msd distributor and flowmaster catback.when i'm going like 15 mph in first, i can floor it and spin the tires all the way to second gear. I was just wondering if I am the only one with a stock car that can do this? I just ordered 3.73's, but now I'm wondering if there are already some aftermarket gears in my car...

How bald are your tires? LoL.

I'm pretty sure they're close to new. They're yokohamas and have like a quarter of an inch of tread on them.

I've actually chirped them going into third a couple of times too.

How fast can you go in 1st?

It's not always a good thing when the tires spin like that, I recently replaced my cheap azz balding Sumitaro's with Pirelli zero nero's & she doesnt get sideways anymore banging into second..what a difference. I'd be willing to bet those Yoko's arent really a quality tire compared to whats available these days.

I can do that, but I have gears...3.73. Sometimes I can do that in second, but usually I have to clutch it.
