Fun in an Empty Parking Lot

Cooool. How did you do that. Can you do it on a dry street or with tiptronic?

Pretty easy to do (and I didn't even really do any good full donuts.) I was on a bit of a incline so the car always slipped out after about half a donut.

You can do it in either manual or triptronic (mine was manual.) All you're doing is cranking the wheel and flooring it in 1st gear until the wheels lose grip.

Technically you could do this on a dry street, but you'd have to be going a bit quicker and it would be a little harder to break traction and control it. Plus it would be a lot harder on the tires.

Interestingly I noticed that even with PSM turned off I could still hear it working away on the front wheels as the car spun. As if it were saying, "You don't really want to be doing this do you?" Maybe that's why I could never manage more than about 180 degress of spin.

By the way, this was done with brand new snow tires on and they seemed to grip a little too well, not allowing as much 'donuting' as possible perhaps. And I did feel like even though it was turned off PSM was acting on the front wheels of the car a bit (even though the brake pedal wasn't been touched)
