Default Doing burnouts

While doing burnouts a couple of weeks ago my wife noticed, my driver side rear wheel began to spin but then quit. Does this meanI have LSD or not enough power ??

Means you have an open differential, one wheel burnouts (the passenger side rear spins) is what all of us with stock rear ends can do.

this might sound like a stupid question but how do you do a burnout? I have a manuel and never tried to do it bc i didnt want to have to pay for new tires...

Thanks,
Matt

wow what?? I have just never felt the need to waste money burning up my tires, and possibly hurting my car before.
