Unhappy I used to be able to peal out

WTF is wrong with my car
BAsically i can not peal out or screech my tires at all when im pissed and/or racing and/or trying to cut someone off. Its really embaressing i wanna make my car seem aggresive but i cannot peal out.
My mods include: HKS Intake, bonez racing pipe, single N1, Old *** clutch
I suspect my clutch is too blame cuz its not transfuring enough power to my wheels cuz its worn, also could be my loss of low end torque do to my exaust system upgrade? Just would like your opinions PLEASE

easy test: drive down the highway, going whatever the speed limit is in 5th (about 80kph/50mph or faster will work). Hit clutch, floor it, when the revs get up around 7k keep your foot on the floor and dump the clutch. If the revs go back down RIGHT away and the car just goes, your clutch is OK. If the revs stay up for a second or two (or just stay up period), then your clutch is screwed.

it could be tires, rear diff... anything in your drivetrain that is lacking. Need more power to the wheels... if the clutch is gone, go street comp from Bonez... it's fun!

Good luck

Yeah , burnouts rule !!! I love to let them go in 1st then rip'em loose in 2nd and bark'em hard in 3rd. It kicks @ss! It's about time for some new Nittos though.

Try putting @ 50lbs of air in rear tires, or hook up an injection system to rear wheels to dispense chlorine....Lot's of smoke.

Hmmm, if it doesn't do it while your racing that means you're learning how to drive . Seriously though it's probably the clutch...you did say it's old.
