I've been making e-brake turns since I was 17 driving my Hyundai. I'd drive in the snow and do 360s in the middle of the street and keep going... Basically, you need to learn how to shift the weight and control it. Whenever you turn, the weight shifts. The key is getting all that weight to shift the way you want it to. i just can't believe that you'd do any of that on a public road. good lord. i hope no one has to die to make you realize your idiocy.

Not on highways or anything. On deserted streets, or with more than enough room. The only thing I could ever hit would be a tree or a ditch. It was common to see kids in parking lots practicing this sort of thing in Kansas during the winter.

The only way to get better at something is to do it. You think you're going to learn to drive better by going the speed limit and obeying all the rules?

If you want to start something, feel free. But I have yet to even have a 'close call' because I practice a little something called discretion. I don't show off for anyone but myself(unless a passenger requests it without me saying something) and I always make sure there are no other cars around. Not everyone who drives wildly does so for attention, some of us actually do it for ourselves. It's a challenge.
