Sign of posi going out?

The entrance to my local Supercats has a ridiculously steep entry into the parking lot. I came at it at an angle to make sure I didn't bottom out my new exhaust, which resulted in my driver's front and passenger's rear wheels coming off the ground. So there I am, teetering on two wheels when I notice I'm not going anywhere, the rear wheel off the ground is just spinning away.

Now if I take off hard from a light, I leave two stripes on the asphalt.

Is this a sign that my posi is on it's way out, or is that normal posi operation? I realize it's not a normal situation for a Camaro to be in, hence the question.

no your posi is not going. the way a posi works is that when one tire spins it other kicks in and helps. the part im not totally sure about is why your other one didnt spin. i thinks it because the other wheel was spinning freely with no resistance. im not sure though.
