RE: Traction

Well wet roads tend to be a problem with traction, so does gravel and muddy roads, and yes dirt roads. I your problem is you hit the gas too hard.

I know but its jus for fun and showing off makes it burnouts easier but i wanted them to not turn to donuts all the time. on dry roads the car stays straight

Well if V6's only get power to one wheel, then power on one side might cause it to go in one direction.

RE: Traction

I see what you were trying to say. a posi would certainly help, my gt doesn't move around much when it spins 'em.

RE: Traction

Do you all know if the 04 3.9L Mustangs are open diff. or get power to both wheels? I really can't tell, but i've done burnouts in dirt that make two marks.
