I did a test launch in an empty parking lot at lunch at about 2000 and the car felt utterly out of control. The tires spun/smoked and the whole rear end spun sideways before I could jerk it back in line. One wheel left a big burnt rubber spot on the pavement - the other nothing. Weird.

One wheel peel... guess the VLSD didn't know what to do with that power
