Default WHOA!! Posi marks!?

Whats up guys? I was practicing launching from a safe closed off location which will remain anonymous. Anyway to make a longstory short my car left posi marks on the pavement. I couldnt really belive it aat first becuase I know the EP3 doesnt come with an LSD. What gives?????

Rubber from both tires - the term comes from the American Iron types with a 'posi traction' diff (or locked rear diff) that would spin both tires instead of an open diff lighting up just one (what most FWD cars do)

most any FWD with enough power can light up both tires .....

not that it matters ...BURNOUTS

but on a Road Course .....both wheels are not powered ...around corners ....one wheel will lift ....and spin without any kind of power transfer that a Limited Slip Differential allows ....

I am still lost here. I dont understand how both wheels could be spinning when the EP3 is not equiped with a LSD.
