If you don't have the button then you don't have traction control.

does it really matter if its a 3.8 or a 3.9?
it's only a 3hp difference..lol

as for the burn out.. dump the clutch and hold the break...

btw this isn't very good for your rear breaks... my suggestion would be to get a line-lock.

Hey guys, think about it. Dump the clutch on a stock car. Save up cash for the repairs your going to need after doing that a few times. Engine, trans, pressure plate, clutch, drive shaft, u joints, rear axle, brakes hmmmm, what did i leave out on this.
Have fun but think about what it costs to make the tires spin.
I have did it with my automatic, but I don't power brake and really I have done it once. I am not looking for fixing stuff or paying tickets.
But then I'm getting old and just don't need to do that anymore.

Joe
