Umm unless your tires are completely bare, i doubt that one, or as was said above, if it was wet. I even have trouble spinning my tires on a v6 Supercharged

aftermarket wheels with HP tires?? stickier rubber is harder to light up, and wheel weight is also a factor.

Are you power braking? I get tranny hop sometimes when i just punch it. If I power brake up to 1500rpms and then floor it i can spin them

I have a auto s/c and I can break the tires free if I punch it going about 5mph. I can also do it from a stop, with new nitto 555 225's.

yeah, i suppose i agree. i've come to the conclusion it really does nothing more than let you know when your tires don't have traction. i know it's supposed to reduce power to the wheels when slippage occurs, but i can't feel it doing anything!
