here's my 2.56 one wheel peel when I test drove my car. 3/4 throttle from a dead stop on newer tires. Car smelled like burnt rubber when I brought it back. Lady never said anything... 
GM8 in SPID indicates 2.56s. G80 (rare option on 2.56s) is Posi.

Yes, that burnout looks alot like what my car put down when I first took possession of it. It's really quite unbelievable to tell you the truth. It's just more satisfying when I do it in the Buick for instance because everybody expects sports cars to burn out.
But this car makes a complete spectacle of it. And the same thing, the entire car smells like burnt rubber. The car will just hang in there and roast the white wall, smoke will be shooting out from underneath the well and the entire car will just smell like a drag strip. The entire thing is just obscene and over the top. I love it.
