1 wheel burn outs you still go straight and will also follow the direction of your turn, ie, no oversteer until you break loose the other wheel by sling-shotting the rear end out (turning hard enough). You still have 1 wheel holding the road since all the power is going to the freely spinning wheel.
2 wheel burnouts you're generally going to skid sideways a bit, or if the wheel is turned, oversteer/spin out pretty easy. Total or majority loss of traction in the rear, making the rear end very likely to swing out.
