V6 Burnout question

For the first time last night I have try making a nice burnout with my V6 and didn't work very well, I have try using the gas and break method with the right foot while controlling the clutch with the other one. That by itself went fine but I have niticed that only one wheel seemed to spin. Tried it a second time and again only one mark on the road.

Of course the TCS was switched to "OFF"

My question: is it normal that a V6 would only spin one wheel at the time ?

Do I need to mod something to get both wheels to push or is it just a question of the surface that I was on ?

BTW I have the handling option package (option 552) on my V6 and that came with TCS and anti-lock brakes but do I have anything else different in the differential ?

The handling package does not, repeat does not have traction-lok on a V6 which a lot of idiot salesman will tell you it does. The GT has standard traction-lok but its not even an option on the V6. Your going to need to get yourself something after market for a two wheel burnout. Even the handling improvement of a locking diff is well worth the up grade. I`m not into burn outs but the improvement in accelerating out of a corner is great.

All V6's come with an open differential... thus, the one wheeled burnouts.

Get a limited slip differential and the problem is solved... the Ford Racing T-lok is a popular choice... others are the Auburn and the Detroit TrueTrac.

the only time ur gonna do a two wheel burnout in a v6 is with an aftermarket differential, or pure luck (100% equal traction on both tires, which requires equal weight distribution left to right).

First its not really for the burnout itself but more of a concern of having traction on both wheels, the burnout was just for fun and I'm not planning to repeat often. But on the other hand I remember seing a couple of video of V6 with two wheels burnout for example that video that went around for a whil of a guy beating the sh**** out of a rented V6 convertible.

So consider more my question as technical rather then useless tire consumption method.....

I've done a couple of nice two wheel (dual) burnouts and it put down two nice black skid marks on the road. It was a level road and I was not ******* it, just having fun.

Well, at least you can spin one tire. The only time mine will spin is if the road is wet.

Mine only does squeals on right turns. Mind you I don't make it a habit- Tires are expensive.
And I do not have TC or ABS on either mustang.
The manual one Does a flat out wheel burn, but I didn't do it, My Dad took the keys and lit em up.
