Can you spin the tyres of an automatic car?

Question

How do you spin the tyres of an automatic car? I have tried but because there is no clutch it does not work? Is it impossible?

Answer 1

I drive 167kw Golf5 GTi auto(DSG)

turn off the traction control and i do not even have to put my foot flat and the wheels are spinning. I do not do it often but have tried it a few times.

Answer 2

Yip you can spin the tyres on any car...

Just Jack it up , release the handbrake and spin the tyre with your hand...

Im in one of those moods today....

Answer 3

Yes it is possable. The car just needs enough power.

The Mercedes Benz S65 AMG has got enough torque to leave 100m marks behind it.  

Step on the brake apply full power and see what happens when you drop the brake.

Answer 4

Yes it is. Engage the hand brake and step on the gas..with the emergency brake engaged the car will have wheel spin. If the car is front wheel drive.

If it is rear wheel drive, then just apply the brakes (which normally applies brakes to the front wheels.)  and again step on the gas. And the rear wheels will have wheel spin.

Answer 7

Ja, just drive it slowly into the wall of your kaya and floor the f#$%er, but not for too long, as you'll farg up the radiator. But be sure to drink some Klippies en Coke before you try this stunt. Goo'luck, Tante!
