I have an automatic if not I'd go do a couple right now in an empty parking lot lol

[driftheroesdotcom]

@cycoboy817 WIth the automatic, put it in "2" and give ourself a little more space and speed

can you do doughnuts in an open diff?

[driftheroesdotcom]

@90sideways Most people will tell you no, and when it comes to small donuts like the ones shown here, they're right.

With an open diff you need a lot more space and speed to do a donut (which is actually going to be just a really big slide)---don't listen to the nay-sayers, I've done it plenty of times in open diff cars with enough space and speed

are you shifting while doing this? what gear are you in around those turns if not?

[driftheroesdotcom]

@RenegadeStormTrooper Most donuts in first, if you want to go a little wider, try second

@driftheroesdotcom i have a honda hatchback dx auto for now and how do i drift and do donuts or burnouts?

[greensp4rk]

my mercedes benz E430 has a kickpedal Ebrake..... damn

@MrPsilokomenos - Unfortunately you can't do this with a front wheel drive car - you can practice doing 90 degree turns with your ebrake though

[MrPsilokomenos]

@driftheroesdotcom got an Automatic FW...can this be done? i tried it and the only way i found was by e-braking and full throttling

@6cheesepuff G35s slide out pretty easily. Forget about the ebrake part. Put your car into 2 and turn off your traction control and follow the rest of the instructions from there :)

[6cheesepuff]
