Our rear are 7.5... to put in a 8.8 LSD would require you to swap the WHOLE rear end.. $$$

i hope you diddnt shift the auto to neutral, Rev it and then shift it into drive.[]

I would NEVER EVER do a Neutral Slam on our cars... BUT remember our automatics are Fly-By-Wire... the computer won't put the car in "Drive" until the RPMs come down to an acceptable range... I wouldn't go out and try and prove me right or wrong... LOL

Yeppers! Cool video!
It looks like the younger set may not know what powerbraking is. You hold the brake, hammer the throttle until the brakes won't hold. Release the brake and smoke the tires. My old 5.0 didn't need to powerbrake. It would smoke the tires at any stoplight wet or dry whenever you wanted. Stock. Wet pavement would make the tail get sideways like Wild Willie Borsch.
