Weird problem I have been having. When I try to spin out and do a donut it will do about a 180 degree turn then completely shut off..... Yes I have full tank and yes traction control is off... But it starts right back up and run like nothing happen. Any ideas where I can begin to diagnose ?

if you are doing donuts in a clockwise position, then try counterclockwise! See if that makes a difference!!!
Explain...I used to be able to do them months ago. So I would appreciate the help...I know you wouldn't say that **** to my face tho Keyboard gladiators I tell ya.

Good point KC.
Lets think about what you're doing here. Spinning the car senselessly to make smoke and noise.
Not running a road course or driving the car as it was designed to do.

I'm with QZRBLU
I don't need to think.about what I'm doing I know what I'm doing you just repeated what I'm doing too. It should be able to do donuts wtf kind of rwd can't do donuts geez you guys are disrespectful for no reason smh but there's always people like you in this life. It goes on. Ps I did this way out in the middle of nowhere no houses or businesses but. I'm making noise ? Lol
Coffee. I'm sure that's the problem. I cannot do donuts without coffee. Occasionally milk, but coffee should fix it right up.
The other thing is that you have wound it too tight in one direction. Take it to a parking lot and do circles (no spin) in the opposite direction you do donuts. Once you unwind it, it should be back to the way it was.
Your G-Force sensor may be stuck. Push the "G" button (center of steering wheel) and the "A" button (12:00 position) simultaneously.

See illustration below...
Good luck !!
wow can I get a str8 answer from someone geez....push the G button smdh
Lets start with the basics. Spark and fuel. So lets tape a fuel pressure gauge on the glass and run the car. Take the hose off the FPR to simulate WOT conditions and see what it does for pressure.
Take a vacuum cap and cap off the nipple on the manifold the hose came off and do a WOT run. Lets see if it can keep up the pressure. After that, go home and shut down. Lets see if it holds pressure.
If that is good, do the donut in one counterclockwise and see what the pressure does. I would have someone strapped in and observe if you can't put a go-pro camera on it. Do it clockwise and see if it does the same thing. If it dies in one direction, maybe you have fuel sloshing around and it does do that for whatever reason?
