Default Burnout

Went to do a burnout before i dragged at a local strip. I dont have t-lok yet. The car vibrated and bounced all over the dam place. Could this cause any future problems? Im sure it could cause rattling but im never doing it again till i get the t-lok. It vibrated sooo bad you have no idea. Everything was fuzzy it was vibrating so bad. Anyone else done this?

It's called wheel hop. You can fix that by replacing the stock lower control arms(LCAs). I really like these:

guessing your Auto?
if you break em loose fast enough it wont do it,its because the tire is still trying to grip its not spinning fast enough. (i think)
manual only doesit if you dont give it enough gas, if you dump clutch at 3000 or so it wont do it.

As Jimp would say "this is the correct answer". I got the powerhouse LCA's as well. Can't go wrong with Powerhouse. [sm=youreright.gif]

Yes, the TCS is controlled by your anti-lock brakes if you turn it off then you will do a clean burn out (once you get the tires spinning) if you leave it on its just burning up your brake pads.
