Just done my first donut, had the scoobs awile. But today was the day, in a car park it was fun

 

Well i say good effort having fun is wat its all about as long as its safe.

But be aware there will be folk who will want to banish you from scoobynet for all eternity for such tom foolery.

Nice one! My opinion is who cares, if you've got the money to burn tyres in your Impreza then good one you. These cars are for enjoying. There are plenty of people who could do dohnuts in a car park all day without hastle, being in total control...then you get the odd tw*t who tries it even though he knows he isn't in control, then prangs the car.

It's that one tosser that ruins things for everyone, but that's life. Lol

 

It was in the snow dudes, and i did post in Driving Dynamics.

 

Good fun . get a video of it and post it up

 

Dint do a vid, and snows gone

 

seen it mate it's good fun, i would only do in snow though. But not again, just wanted to no what it felt like.

 

good on ya mate i do it all the time,well when its safe

 

Hope your sumps modified. Mates engine went because centripedal (centrifugal can never remember which one) force sent oil to outer edges of sump away from pickup resulting in engine starvation and rather large bill.

Good advice...I'd even forgot about that. Would only apply to tarmac though, as I don't think the car would spin fast enough on snow to have that effect.

 

What, sumps in front in middle, **** end spins out, engine stays central, so no centrifugal effect

 

Yeah but the engine spins around. Just stir your tea to see what happens.

It drops in the middle by 2 or 3 mm, so what

 

Apologise mate, had a drink, but spinning car with oil at correct level should be no prob

 

Don't know how much it drops only know his engine went bang through no oil. Maybe he didn't have it topped up. I'd still be careful about doing prolonged ones with high rotation speed though.

 

learning how to control your car, isnt it mate????
