Depends, If I trounce it off the line I do quite the smoke show. If I ease into first then trounce on it it starts to get squirley at the top of first gear. Now with the old 225/70r15's it was far more squirley then it is now and smoke shows in first were almost at will. The bigger meats calmed it down quite a bit.

Nothing. What'd you expect from a smog-choked, automatic, slower than a Ford F-350, 3.08 rear-geared, peanut cammed, Comp Controlled QJet, 305ci, California Corvette?
It gets the looks though! I just always take it easy and make people think I'm not racing them. :D

Yeah, Mine will light 'em up off the light, chirp it in 2nd and sometimes 3rd.
Its a funny feeling though...I mean, it lights them up...sitting there spinning, then when they grab, it takes off like a rocket. Very cool feeling.

The maco with the 383 stroker would spin on command. Now the engine is out and we are building a blown big block for it.
The 94 will spin if you turn the traction control off.

Yes, mine will light up pretty good if I get into the gas and engage the clutch quicker than normal. Try to avoid this as I know it is hard on the driveline components. However.....sometimes my maturity level isn't as high as it should be and I like the sound and the seat of the pants kick when the tires do stick and the car rushes forward! April isn't too far away.....
