Yeah, becomes moot after a while. But I can say I have never seen a burnout on rims like that.

Agree with the comment - shame the thing didn't catch fire. Idiots.

Not convinced the road was quite as private as they were at pains to state.

I'm not much of a motor head, how does only one of the back wheels spin, the left back was fine! how does that work!

You'll need a locked or LSD diff for that, it had an open diff so once one of the wheels looses traction only that one will spin. Think about what happens to wheels when they both have to spin at the same speed going around a corner ;)

Open diff. When you turn left, outer wheel has to rotate much faster than inner wheel. A 2WD car, is actually a 1WD car, so the wheel with least traction will "get the drive", unless they both have equal grip. Just to confuse matters even more, a full time 4WD car is only a 2WD car in effect. So, what that means is, if you have any 1 slipping wheel on the front axle and any one slipping wheel on the rear axle (ex, LF and RF), you are stuck and will be going nowhere. Like the poster above me said, in order to have traction at both driving wheels, you will need a locked diff, or limited slip diff.

got me thinking I have an old honda 750 and a spare rim now that would be a good burn out
