Default ?? about rear

a couple weeks ago at the track i did a brun out to heat the tires in 2nd gear, smoked the tires for a bit and then the drivers side rear stopped spinning. Could that be do to the fact the et street tires got to hot and sticky and strarted to grab or could it be a problem in the rear. I had 4.10 gears installed a while ago it seems to run fine, i have a little gear whine but that seems normal. any info would be great

Sometimes if the water pit is not realy wet on both sides, I seee one tire spin more than the other due to lack of water maybe??? Not sure on this one. Some one??? Anyone??? TTT brother!

One side should not stop spinning, and there should be no whine. Something does't sound right to me.
