The Tundra can burn out like that because it is a pickup which means that there is very little weight over the rear wheels, making them much easier to spin.

As you know the LX has more metal, glass, seating, etc over the rear wheels which makes them a lot less eager to spin out.

As MP said, the Tundra is a pick up truck, little weight over the rear wheels, and that one is likely RWD.

The LX is Full-Time 4WD, it's going to make burnouts like that next to impossible.

LX570 can do it because it also has center diff working all the time.

Plus the thing weighs 6000lbs

Nahhh it doesn't need the SC kit...I had a 07 DC 5.7 Tundra..You just turn off the traction control...I turned it off getting on the 101 freeway here in Hollywood & left a huge white cloud..Yes it is light over the wheels but the truck does way 5500Lbs...Sheet if your LX's could handle the SC man 383HP boosted to 505Hp might just rip the awd off your car...
