Just wondering if both wheels spin when doing a burnout at the start of the qtr mile for c63 without lsd.
Taking the car down in two weeks and will probably find out myself before then but if anyone can shed some light it would be appreciated.
Also launch revs for stock tyres and launch revs for slicks?
thanks

Answer is both rear wheels spin fine.
Still after launch tips for street tyres and also slicks.

no the real answer is sometimes.
And after u take off if the track is not preped rite you will spin. 1 tire when hitting 2nd gear not 2 tire 1

Don't even think about doing a burn out on street tires and avoid the water box. You will spin all over the place.
No need to bring the revs up as you will spin ridiculously if you do that on street tires.
Best advice I can give is to take ESP OFF, SPORT MODE and then hold the shifter down a gear until it says D1 so that way it will shift every gear automatically at redline for you and you can feather the throttle at launch to avoid spin wheel spin without shifting to 2nd gear too early like it would do in normal sport mode.

Manual-Sport mode automatically shifts for you at red line? I didn't know that.
Regular Manual doesn't, right?

Manual mode will shift when you tell it to.
