The problem with vids like that on youtube is that people will decide to try it in their local supermarket carpark!

Its definitely possible had it a few times in various situations, the snow in November last year was particularly fun

Wouldnt want to try that unless on a track! FWD cars are too easy to spin

Definitely not the kind of thing to try on public roads, there will always be someone who does though :s

I've had the back end out on track plenty of times, hell most of the time on purpose just to get it to turn in but I wouldnt say they spin easy if anything the opposite.

My 182 cup was so easy to get to lift off oversteer. Really was tail happy

The 197 is much more planted and alot harder to provoke.

:driveby:
I have popped a few on dual carraigeways and roundabouts when the roads are quiet... No good for the tyres though.

I'm not sure it counts where you're wheels aren't touching tarmac

 

[Keil]

Should I be proud?

its usually on roundabouts :s

 

[Paul]

Cold semi slicks will have that affect on you haha!

 

[skny]

whats the big deal, if you know how to do it and you know where to do it then I see no reason why you shouldnt, of course I am not talking about long slides like the ones in the vid but you can still have some fun with little oversteer here and there
