i think he means, without dipping the clutch, just the power from the engine makes the wheels spin off the throttle

Anybody can wheelspin a car by giving it loads of throttle then depressing the clutch quickly.
"spinning off the throttle" is when say if you cruising in 2nd gear, you plant your foot down, and it starts to spin becuase of the power or in other cases shite tires!

Are you for real? 
A MILDLY tuned Corsa would keep up with one. My RS1800 destroys them.
