Thats how the stock differential works. The wheel with the least resistance gets all the power. as stated above get an lsd but you should get an lsd for more than just the purpose of having both wheels spin durring a burn out. I reccomend reading up on what lsd (limited slip differential) actually is first.

Noraml condition. You have a 1 legged toad, so does everyone without an LSD or a welded diff.

Get an LSD, safer than a welded differential...

One thing I have heard to get both tires to rotate is turn the wheel some side to side and attempt to break the other wheel loose also. Be careful

maybe your cv joints are at different stages of wear... both my wheels spin almost all the time on even surfaces (i have no lsd), i've heard some cars do it more than others.. my friends starlet turbo has crazy torque steer and is only 130bhp..

yeah i didnt notice this till recently untill i went to the track, and yes broke in to 13's, thats the first time i noticed it. earler in the week i was messing with my left axle, the one that doest seem to be working, and so i am wondering if when i put it back together it got messed up. i dont know, cause its not like its' rocket science, well my car is pretty fast. haha jp, its only high 13's. but ne more acvice is welcome, hopefully someone knows of a cause of this, other than that i dont have lsd, and yes i know what that is.
