Well it depends on how you shift very much. I've noticed that a lot lately. I think I got the shifting down to where I can have the back end come out.

:lol:
If you can chirp 4th you need better tires.

If you are hitting 5th gear that hard....you will be looking to replace that T56 soon. Those overdrive gears are not designed to handle power. Just cruise.

I mean the tires aren't completely dried out or anything. KDWS about a year old...but sat in AZ everyday. And I don't hit the OD gears hard all the time...just every once in a great while.

plenty of tread on normal everyday tires.... they sucked ass for hooking... if it had a deceant tire on it, it wouldnt have done that but on the 1-2 shift..

As we start to go I notice he doesnt even try. I'm like fuck it i'll go anyways. I do then when I shift to second gear hard my back end slides out. Is that normal? I've never had it happen like that...

I bet the chick wondered why your car got sideways like that LOL! Probably no clue about front or rear wheel drive. At least of the Scions, that is the best looking one.

Last year at the dragstrip I could hear my car chirping 4th, got it on video also. The shift into 2nd seemed like I was really going sideways, but on video review it was just barely. And you can overpower your TC, sounds like that is what happened. Glad I don't have that option....

I have video of me getting loose in 3rd gear....from a rolling punch. No clutch.

I would rather go than spin though. :)

No clutch? You shifted without using the clutch?
