The reason I don't know is because he didn't... I never got to talk to the guy who did it...
And no it was not a terribly fast car... my dad's convertable 911 NA had it no problem... the cost wasn't very high (1000 at most) and my buddy had money pouring out of his ears at the time. I never got to see what it did once he put a turbo on his na block I was told it was disquisting fast but I never got to ride in it.

I wasn't talking about a 3g which wasn't even the car being discussed... or a 2g... a friend of mine had a 1st gen awd turbo talon and he raced a friend with a 9? camaro ss. and they hit 150 and let off... he said he could of hit 160 easy. yes his car was chipped and turbo. I'd imagine that somewhere in the mentioned $70k budget put into the 2g eclipse in FnF there was a turbo..
The reason you CAN do a wheelie while spinning the tires is because if you have enough EXCESS torque you can have enough traction to hold the car in position and go forward all the while spinning the tires.... Like ford dude said...
"anything can be done with bleach on the track for SHOWS, name 1 ****ing car that can do that off the starting line with slicks without help from the wet box."
If you can do it with the aid of bleach then how is it impossible without? you still have traction loss right???? and it's still doing a wheelie...and spinning the tires.. that sounds like its possible to me. Also the car I'm refering to was on slicks that's the whole point.
My car can loose traction but maintain forward movement. Anyone who's ever done a burnout realizes that yes there is traction lose but you still lurch forward. Multiply the excess power and the degree of traction able to be produced even under spin conditions and there you have it enough force to keep the car in position and moving down the track even though the wheels are spinning.
Oh ya and I'm a ricer like your mom's not a street whore.
