That's the only time you'll catch me doing that. I won't even chirp the tires on pavement; the tires run me almost $500 each.
in the new ones its impossable to chirp the tires, i turn off stabilitrak, shift to one and the tires spin but like once and no rubber and then you get traction and take off.
GM uses what they call Torque Management, which decreases power output from the engine during "abusive manuevers", and punching it off the line qualifies as an abusive manuever, causing the pcm to decrease engine output. This is one of GM's way to decrease powertrain and driveline stress. You can get the pcm custom tuned to remove all or any percentage of the TM. Once this is removed or decreased, the vehicle will have better off-the-line acceleration, and if you want, you can break loose and squeal the tires more easily.
