Anyway, thats interesting that it allowed you to do a burnout. Has anyone got to 105 and tried this to see if it would go further... my guess is no but just wondering. Maybe certain trucks do this and some don't???

hey sorry i havnt been on in a couple days... we did it in his 09 ram and i am positive the driving past 105 works... we did it on the highway and when we tried the burnout he spun the tires better than he ever has before but that may have been a one time thing maybe he just got a good hit... and yea when you put the key to start it doesnt engage the starter and it shuts off the lcd screen but the gauges still work

Well back to the OP what he said I do think actually works. If you hold the fob in the start position as you are getting ready to do a burn out AND while you do your burn out I think it does actually trick the computer some how but it picks up as soon as you let go of the key. I have the 3.55 open diff and when I tried this it smoked one with no interference or with out the ELECTRIC limited slip trying to act. If some one that plays with thier truck a lot that has the LSD would try this to make sure that this was not just a fluke and report back, your responce would be welcomed.
Disclaimer: I only tried this once and I am unsure if it actually works or if it was just a fluke.

I posted on the first page that I was able to do a burn out while holding the key in the start position but once I let go of the key it allow the ESP to engage. I have a 2009 QC 4x4 hemi sport. I have not been able to get any where that I can safely test the 105 limit with out endangering anyone. I do think that this may actually be valid but I question if it will damage any of the parts of the electrical system.
silver ram, am I correct that you held the key in the start position the full length of time that you were "playing" and that you did not do the key trick like the LX does?

72combo, I can get the tires to spin if I power brake the truck normally except when I normally power brake the truck the Electric LSD (a part of the ESP) will engage causing the other tire to try to spin but it also feels like the truck is trying to jumb as the ESP applies the brakes to create a LSD effect.
When I tried spinning while holding the key in the start postition the other tire never offered to try to spin and the truck never jumped, it smoked one tire until I let go of the key and the partical ESP took over.

Tried this on my wet driveway today and sure enough it worked like a charm. I tried spinning the tires with the esp button on and off and esp kicked in but the key turning completely disabled it and TC.
Now I'll have no problems this winter when it snows
