Spinning tires

So I am kinda knew to the front drive part of cars, and get a really jumpy feeling when I peel out, is there a way around this?? also, I asume you can't slide or fishtale with front wheel drive....I guess those are some of the draw backs huh?

It all depends on how you let out the clutch and how you feather the gas pedal. I do it sometimes when a light turns green and i wasn't paying attention and quickly try to take off. My clutch is starting to go so it probably has a lot to do with that.

You can slide and fishtale with the 3, but not like you could with a RWD car. The 3's back end likes to stay put so it take alot of coaxing before it will break lose

thats wheel hop you are describing...need stiffer motor mounts. Not sure if they make them for the MZ3 though(dunno)

I don't think he meant jumpy like our cars when we peel out...lol. I think he meant like sketchy type of jumpy...or did you mean the car felt jumpy? Bah, to get the back end out, I use a little friend I call e-brake
