Burnout / Traction COntrol?

[bobmundo123]

Is there a way to make a switch for traction control.. also.. just out of curiosity.. is there a way to do burnouts in these guy.. i have not attempted or anything.. but randomly stumbled upon videos of people doin em online.. and was curious how they did so.. considering A) its front Wheel.. and not to sure how brakes / ebrake works into all of this..

Not sure about your model, but I know mine has a TC button on the lower center console, next to the 12v.

Get ready to be bombarded with "FWD burnouts are lame" by the community. There is a TC button next to my 12v in the center dash as well. I don't know if it is present in all G6's.

Traction control button should be where they said.

An easy way to break an auto loose is to (at a complete stop) press the brake down firmly. While holding the break down press the gas. Once your car revs to 2.5 or 3K release the break quickly and put the gas pedal down. That should provide some healthy tire spin.

if you dont have a TC button then you dont have TC and if u have a 4cyl like your profile says then i highly doubt it can even do one all i have to do in my gxp is hit the gas and it will do a burnout hell if im going 20mph and punch it it will break the tires loose if i hold the brakes and preload to 2k rpms and launch i will spinn the tires all the ways across a 6 lane intersection all of this is without holding the ebrake too lol

Have you ever driven the 4 cyl? Mine will peel out with traction control on, and no brake, just gas. I assume he wants some smoke though and that's a bit harder as he would have to keep them spinning for a bit.

Re: Burnout / Traction COntrol?

Good point, I forgot about the tranny. If its any help in comparison I'm a tad faster than the 4L mustangs. Yes, I know that's not saying a whole lot.

I have an 07 gtp and ive burnt rubber rolling 50 mph on dry blacktop, of course it was 35 degrees. I have a witness to confired this as well. The LS2s suck!

Re: Burnout / Traction COntrol?

I have read here, dont remember where, that doing burnouts on our cars will seriously hurt the front transaxle because some oil starvation issue or something.

Tranny experts care to give light here?

I can spin my tires easily from standstill, they are 235!!

Re: Burnout / Traction COntrol?

i'm not sure if the traction control button is in there. I will definitely check that tomorrow morning. I definitely don't remember seeing it.. but my g6 has definitely peel out ... and so yea.. i think its got a decent amount of power behind it... I might try the break thing up to 2.5 and then floor it... we'll see... not sure if it's a great idea... but if people double that opinion... i might give it a shot..
